This book was one of the absolute worst that I've ever read. Stern's gimmick is that he takes "the great Modernist Seminal Works" (the use of that phrase alone should have been a warning sign) and writes new stories that revolve around the older works. I see why the idea is interesting, but in practice I found it boring and pseudo-intellectual.

I can't remember who recommended this book to me, which is probably for the best!
