The Stories of Breece d'j Pancake by Breece D'j Pancake
3.0
I’m not gonna lie—I didn’t understand a lot of this book. Some of it was the vernacular but also the point of some of the stories. Again, I’m not a book short story person so a lot of the art of short stories is lost on me. Of the stories I did understand, I liked it. The rest I’m pretty ambivalent about. I can appreciate the creativity of the stories. I’m just not going to sit here and pretend I got them all.
What I did understand was that this collection of stories is a day in the life of people in West Virginia. It really shed light on the lifestyle of people there and how they act, think, and talk.
Long story short, if you’re a fan of Faulkner, you’ll probably like this. I’m not a fan of Faulkner, so I feel meh about this.
