Seattle City of Literature: Reflections from a… de Ryan Boudinot
This city (and region) is swimming in the literary.
This is a great collection. Many of the stories have very shocking, unpredictable endings that just leave you gaping at the page when you finish. A few of them move a little slow, but over all, this is a great collection. I would definitely check out more from this author.
Bits and pieces of it were amusing, and the whole thing was absurd, but there wasn't enough of a guiding force (or maybe it just moved too slow) for it to be really compelling.
Championship dishwasher Woo-jin Kan is told by his future self that he must quit his job at Il Italian Joint and write a book called How to Love People so that The Last Dude, who sits atop an Arizona mesa, can read this book and spell out for any onlookers what it was that brought about the end of humanity. It starts there and gets weirder. Marauding sentient glaciers, floating celestial heads, miniature software development monks - that sort of thing.
Boudinot is both a hilariously gifted wordsmith and a master storyteller, and Blueprints of the Afterlife will most certainly be among the best books of 2012.… (més)
