Etgar Keret's "Fly Already"
Yesterday something wonderful happened—Etgar Keret's newest short story collection, Fly Already, appeared in the world, in English, translated by a ridiculously talented cast of translators. This collection contains all the charm, the absurdities, the intelligence and surreal sense of Keret's previous collections, but this time, most of the stories are somewhat longer. Today, Marcela reads the shortest piece in the book, and the final story, Evolution of a Breakup. Text: Fly Already, by Etgar Keret, translated by Sondra Silverston, et. al. Riverhead Books, Sept. 2019.
