Publisher's Synopsis
This issue of McSweeney's boasts as exciting an array of stories as only the world's best literary journal can offer. Featuring fourteen stories from writers like Yannick Murphy, Roddy Doyle and Joyce Carol Oates, McSweeney's 29 offers everything a good book should: there is jungle warfare, there are boomerang tycoons, there are track-team romances and advice-giving animals it might not have been wise to bring home. There is also art on every page and a finely die-cut cover, wrapped in several kinds of cloth, that will make other people want to grab this one right out of your hands, so watch out.
