A review by alex_whitehall
The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven by Sherman Alexie
4.0
Sherman Alexi definitely has a different style from the basic writer. While not bad, those people who are very uppity about grammar and sentence structure may be put off by it. Although I'm an editor, I found I was able to look past the style since it wasn't over the top and added a certain feel to his work.
Possibly one of the funniest pieces in this collection of short stories is "The Approximate Size of My Favorite Tumor." Although the topic is death, it's light-hearted and amusing and gives a different perspective on living life and laughter.
Many of the other stories have less serious topics, but some are more "depressing," possibly because of their realism and the savage reality that life sucks. The book is filled with great "one liners" that are deep, amusing, or just strange.
While not my favorite author, he's definitely someone I'll continue to add to my bookshelf.
