Just when you think there's nothing left to find in fiction, a book like this comes along. I read the same stories in the New Yorker and ordered the book immediately. The vignettes in flash fiction form all deal with the relationship between fathers and sons. Some are funny. Some are poignant. All are incredibly creative. Some even read like copy for a local news teleprompter.
This book is fantastic, so long as you are comfortable with the flash fiction format and aren't looking for a collection of short stories or a full-length novel. Sachs is easily one of the most creative and detailed writers to come around in a long time, and I look forward to whatever he does next.
