A review by fanninh
Tenth of December: Stories by George Saunders

4.0

Escape from spiderhead was my favorite but took a while to get the cadence. Puppy was really sad. Home- returned soldier, dark humor.
The Semplica Girl Diaries was the longest, tough read with the cadence and lack of sentence structure.
Themes: abuse, poverty, absent parents, class awareness/ striving, divorce, catholic school, protagonists with internal dialogues/ imagined conversations with other characters. Story arcs related to morality struggles.
