McSweeney's Mammoth Treasury of Thrilling Tales by Dave Eggers
In September 1998, Dave Eggers set up a new literary magazine. Five years later, that magazine has firmly established itself on America's literary map as the platform for brilliant new writing. With McSWEENEY'S MAMMOTH TREASURY OF THRILLING TALES, the tenth issue, Hamish Hamilton joins forces with Dave Eggers and his team and becomes the magazine's UK publisher. Guest-edited by Michael Chabon this issue includes brand-new work from Chabon, Eggers, Rick Moody, Neil Gaiman, Aimee Bender, Stephen King, Michael Crichton, Elmore Leonard, Nick Hornby and more..
Set up five years ago, this was a literary magazine and here is the tenth issueIt is now well established in America and this issue includes new work from Aron Chabon, Eggers, Stephen King, Nick Hornby, Elmore Leonard and others. I particularly enjoyed Nick Hornby's tale of the end of the world as seen first on a video recorder. It is chilling and vastly readable. Also, the Elmore Leonard story of fearless young Carlos, who shoots a bank-robbing killer who has eaten his ice-cream cone, is a humdinger. This volume makes first class bedside reading.
Dave Eggers is the author of A HEARTBREAKING WORK OF STAGGERING GENIUS and YOU SHALL KNOW OUR VELOCITY. Michael Chabon is the author of several novels, including WONDER BOYS, and the winner of the Pulitzer Prize for THE AMAZING ADVENTURES OF KAVALIER AND CLAY.
