Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

McSweeney's began as a literary journal which published only works rejected from other magazines. But after the first issue, the journal began to publish pieces written with McSweeney's in mind, attracting works from some of the finest writers in the country and many new talents. The journal is committed to finding new voices, publishing work of gifted but underappreciated writers, and pushing the literary form forward at all times.

Synopsis:

With a special section on Donald Barthelme, including remembrances from Ann Beattie, David Gates, and Oscar Hijuelos, and some of Barthelmes barely published and never-collected early work, and a highly theoretical but potentially amazing Z-binding that we cant describe very well here, or even to each other, McSweeneys 24 will never be mistaken for anything else. (Except possibly the June 1978 issue of Popular Mechanics.)
