The Braindead Megaphone by George Saunders

4.0

Several really good essays in this book. Something about Saunders really just clicks with me -- for example, upon reading his essay on Barthelme's "The School," I went back to my copy of B's Sixty Stories to revisit and found that it was the only story in that collection I had dog-eared. I didn't love all the essays in this book, but several really worked for me, and the letter from a dog (not precisely an essay) made me cackle when I first read it and cackle again when trying to keep a straight face while reading it aloud to my family later.
