Reviews
Praise for George Saunders "No one writes more powerfully than George Saunders." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "Saunders makes you feel as though you are reading fiction for the first time." --Khaled Hosseini "George Saunders is a complete original. There is no one better, no one more essential to our national sense of self and sanity." --Dave Eggers "Few people cut as hard or deep as Saunders does." --Junot Díaz "Not since Twain has America produced a satirist this funny." --Zadie Smith "George Saunders makes the all-but-impossible look effortless. We're lucky to have him." --Jonathan Franzen "An astoundingly tuned voice--graceful, dark, authentic, and funny--telling just the kinds of stories we need to get us through these times." --Thomas Pynchon

Synopsis
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - WINNER OF THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE The "devastatingly moving" ( People ) first novel from the author of Tenth of December a moving and original father-son story featuring none other than Abraham Lincoln, as well as an unforgettable cast of supporting characters, living and dead, historical and invented Named One of Paste ' s Best Novels of the Decade - Named One of the Ten Best Books of the Year by The Washington Post, USA Today, and Maureen Corrigan, NPR - One of Time 's Ten Best Novels of the Year - A New York Times Notable Book - One of O: The Oprah Magazine 's Best Books of the Year February 1862. The Civil War is less than one year old. The fighting has begun in earnest, and the nation has begun to realize it is in for a long, bloody struggle. Meanwhile, President Lincoln's beloved eleven-year-old son, Willie, lies upstairs in the White House, gravely ill. In a matter of days, despite predictions of a recovery, Willie dies and is laid to rest in a Georgetown cemetery. "My poor boy, he was too good for this earth," the president says at the time. "God has called him home." Newspapers report that a grief-stricken Lincoln returns, alone, to the crypt several times to hold his boy's body. From that seed of historical truth, George Saunders spins an unforgettable story of familial love and loss that breaks free of its realistic, historical framework into a supernatural realm both hilarious and terrifying. Willie Lincoln finds himself in a strange purgatory where ghosts mingle, gripe, commiserate, quarrel, and enact bizarre acts of penance. Within this transitional state--called, in the Tibetan tradition, the bardo--a monumental struggle erupts over young Willie's soul. Lincoln in the Bardo is an astonishing feat of imagination and a bold step forward from one of the most important and influential writers of his generation. Formally daring, generous in spirit, deeply concerned with matters of the heart, it is a testament to fiction's ability to speak honestly and powerfully to the things that really matter to us. Saunders has invented a thrilling new form that deploys a kaleidoscopic, theatrical panorama of voices to ask a timeless, profound question: How do we live and love when we know that everything we love must end? "A luminous feat of generosity and humanism."--Colson Whitehead, The New York Times Book Review "A masterpiece." -- Zadie Smith, #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * WINNER OF THE MAN BOOKER PRIZE The "devastatingly moving" ( People ) first novel from the author of Tenth of December : a moving and original father-son story featuring none other than Abraham Lincoln, as well as an unforgettable cast of supporting characters, living and dead, historical and invented One of The New York Times 's 100 Best Books of the 21st Century * One of The Atlantic 's Great American Novels of the Past 100 Years * One of Paste 's Best Novels of the Decade Named One of the Ten Best Books of the Year by The Washington Post, USA Today, and Maureen Corrigan, NPR * One of Time 's Ten Best Novels of the Year * A New York Times Notable Book * One of O: The Oprah Magazine 's Best Books of the Year February 1862.
