5.0 out of 5 stars
Masterly short story collection,
By
This review is from: The Alligator Report (Paperback)
I have enjoyed works by W. P. Kinsella ever since reading "Shoeless Joe" many years ago. (I also enjoyed the movie "Field of Dreams"). It's been a while since I had a chance to read anything by Mr. Kinsella, but this collection of short stories was a wonderful return to writing by an excellent author.
When I say "short stories" I really mean "short", for many of them are only one or two pages in length. Even so, they encompass a situation or a slice of life that is complete in itself, and that is most satisfying. Perhaps the most interesting story (if I can really only select one from a group of excellent ones) is "The Alligator Report", which is constructed as if it were a college literature exam, with discussion questions after every paragraph or so. I found the entire concept hilarious, and highly recommend this book to anyone who thoroughly enjoys fine writing.

This review is from: The Alligator Report (Paperback)
There are some great slice of life vignettes in this book. "The Job" was my favorite story.
