TFL #60
The Floating Library sets sail on the Sea of Short Stories with Amelia Gray, Rivka Galchen and Rebecca Makkai. An excerpt:
While Gray’s stories are often distinguished by their darkness, they are buoyed by a sharp sense of humor. In “Go for It and Raise Hell” a Camaro driving New Mexican terrorizes his patch of desert with his pitiless worldview:
“Carl is coated in the filth of the world. Carl does not believe that the meek shall inherit. He knows that you never know what is enough until you find out what is more than enough.”
When he isn’t “flipping endless J-turns” or hitting on waitresses, Carl imagines the movie of his life that he calls, GO FOR IT AND RAISE HELL, and when is that ever not excellent advice?
