02.18: Kelly Link
2015-01-16 00:05:23| Powells Books Events Calendar
Kelly Link has been hailed by Michael Chabon as "the most darkly playful voice in American fiction," by Neil Gaiman as "a national treasure," and by Karen Russell as "Franz Kafka with a better understanding of ladies' footwear and bad first dates." Now Link's eagerly awaited new collection, Get in Trouble (Random House), proves indelibly that this bewitchingly original writer is among the finest we have. Link has won an ardent following for her ability, with each new short story, to take readers deeply into an unforgettable, brilliantly constructed fictional universe. The eight exquisite examples in this collection show her in full command of her formidable powers. Hurricanes, astronauts, evil twins, bootleggers, Ouija boards, iguanas, The Wizard of Oz, superheroes, the Pyramids... These are just some of the talismans of an imagination as capacious and as full of wonder as that of any writer today. But as fantastical as these stories can be, they are always grounded by sly humor and an innate generosity of feeling for the frailty — and the hidden strengths — of human beings. In Get in Trouble, this one-of-a-kind talent expands the boundaries of what short fiction can do.
