Litman's funny, sad, and generally awesome debut makes me praise the gods I can read. Want perspective? Elaine Blair's review of "The Last Chicken in America: A Novel in Stories by Ellen Litman" (The New York Review of Books. 54. 20 [2007]: 80) situates Litman's work within the great tradition of immigrant American fiction while Maud Newton's review, "Fiction - THE LAST CHICKEN IN AMERICA: A Novel in Stories" (The New York Times Book Review. [2007]: 16) confirms that Litman's book is one to buy multiple copies of for one's own collection of great firsts and for gifts to everyone one knows.
