CivilWarLand in Bad Decline

In his first collection, George Saunders' vision of our near future is as black and funny as you can get. He takes us on a trip to the shopping malls and theme parks and environmental hazards that lie just around the chronological corner, introducing us to a gang of misfits and losers struggling to survive in an increasingly haywire world.

Bizarre but familiar, fierce but always humane, these are stunningly original stories by a master of the form.
