Mary Gaitskill, ed. Best New American Voices 2009 This is the best book I've reviewed for Library Journal in a while--there are some really stellar stories in here. Also one where a dude kills a dog, which made me like the book a little less.
A real review will appear in some future issue of Library Journal--I'm not sure which one, but there's usually a couple months of lead time, so probably the first one in September.
hey wordynerdy, my real name isn't bruno, but i'll tell you the story had something to do about race... i'm only being cryptic because maybe you didn't like the story, and i want an honest assessment.... bruno ps--holla at me on facebook bruno schulz II pps--your name isn't wordnerdy either, huh?
Well, don't be offended if your story isn't mentioned in the review--we have a 175-word limit in LJ. I liked most of the stories a lot so I'm sure yours was great.
