Product Description
McSweeney’s began in 1998 as a literary journal that published only works rejected from other magazines. Today, it attracts work from some of the finest writers in the country, including David Foster Wallace, Ann Cummins, Rick Moody, and William T. Vollmann. McSweeney's Issue 21 includes work by Roddy Doyle and Stephen Elliott, as well as the triumphant return of Arthur Bradford. There's also new stories (written by secretive and heretofore unknown authors) of beauty and acuity. Determined to find new voices, publish work of gifted but underappreciated writers, and push the literary form forward at all times, McSweeney's Issue 21 proves McSweeney's continued commitment to excellence.

Customer Reviews
Another A+ from McSweeney's
From cover to cover (and especially with the special wraparound flap), this issue is a sparkling example of why McSweeney's is a gem in the literary world. In particular, I appreciated the random letters in their original form written to The Late Great Ray Charles.
And if you've never read a McSweeney's Quarterly Concern, treat yourself and buy this issue. You'll be addicted after reading it and spend all your beer money for more McSweeney's.
Love it so far
This is an excellent collection of short stories. Anyone who enjoys this form of literature should enjoy this collection.
