Pastoralia

About

In "PASTORALIA," George Saunders presents a darkly humorous and twisted version of modern America. The stories feature a couple working in a caveman theme-park where silence is enforced, a born loser attending a bizarre self-help seminar, and a male exotic dancer facing terror from his decomposing aunt's ghostly visit. Saunders' writing combines deadpan naturalism with uproarious humor, offering a unique yet strangely familiar world that resonates with contemporary life.
