![]() ![]() One friend said she thought she'd read a story by him in The New Yorker. (Actually, that actor's name was George Sanders.) Adding to my anxieties was the fact that, according to the article, everybody else in the literary world had already anointed Saunders "the writer for our time." So, I asked a few serious reader friends - the kind of people with subscriptions to n+1 - if they'd read George Saunders. You may remember that the headline of the cover story was: "George Saunders Has Written The Best Book You'll Read This Year." I was baffled because the only George Saunders I could think of was that old movie star who was always playing cads in films like Rebecca and All About Eve. I was baffled by the cover of The New York Times Magazine two Sundays ago. George Saunders' previous books include In Persuasion Nation and The Very Persistent Gappers of Frip.
