Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

McSweeney's has grown to be one of the country's best and largest-circulation literary journals. It's committed to finding new voices, publishing work of gifted but underappreciated writers, and pushing the literary form forward at all times. Past contributors include David Foster Wallace, Ann Cummins, Rick Moody, Heidi Julavits, Jonathan Lethem, and William T. Vollmann.

Synopsis:

With our biggest line-up in quite a while – fifteen stories from writers like Yannick Murphy, Roddy Doyle, Ben Greenman, and Peter Orner – McSweeney's 29 offers everything a good book should: there is jungle warfare, there are boomerang factories, there are tragedies and romances and animals it might not have been wise to bring home. There is also art on every damn page, and a finely die-cut cover, wrapped in several kinds of cloth, that will make other people want to grab this one right out of your hands, so watch out.

Synopsis:

Featuring 15 stories from writers, including Yannick Murphy, Roddy Doyle, Ben Greenman, and Peter Orner, "McSweeney's Issue 29" offers everything a good book should: from jungle warfare and boomerang factories to tragedies and romances.
