Fun Parts e-bog

The Fun Parts is Sam Lipsyte at his very best-a far-ranging exploration of new voices and vistas from "e;the most consistently funny fiction writer working today"e; (Time). A boy eats his way to self-discovery, while another must battle the reality-brandishing monster preying on his fantasy realm. Elsewhere, an aerobics instructor-the daughter of a Holocaust survivor-makes the most shocking leap imaginable to save her soul. These are just a few of the characters you'll encounter in Sam Lipsyte's richly imagined world.Featuring a grizzled and possibly deranged male doula, a doomsday hustler who must face the multi-universal truth of "e;the real-ass jumbo,"e; and a tawdry glimpse of a high school shot-putting circuit in northern New Jersey, circa 1986, Lipsyte's short stories combine the tragicomic brilliance of his beloved novels with the compressed vitality of Venus Drive.
