That Old Country Music by Kevin Barry

5.0

Even when he's working in steady and predictable modes, Kevin Barry remains perhaps my favorite word-for-word author working today. His ear for language and speech and a keen turn of phrase is unparalleled and while these stories aren't as daring as some of his earlier work (or his novels), they're no less pleasurable. Reading his work brings a smile to my face every single time.
