Review: Fox 8

Fox 8 Fox 8 by George Saunders
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

From the opening line, this short story grabbed my heart and held on tight. I liked the funky spelling because it served as a reminder that this was not just any old storyteller. This one was special. In fact, I had a voice in my head that was conjured by those werds as if Fox 8 were telling me the story himself. The mental images were very Wes Anderson but that probably says more about me than the story. Finally, I completely stand behind the message of the book. If everyone did, we'd all be better off.
