- The witty, surreal, and imaginative fiction of award-winning author George Saunders mocks the absurdity of modern society while recognizing the tragic circumstances of those who live within it. He satirizes consumer culture, ruthless politicians, and the banality of life with darkly humorous fables about theme park workers paid to act like Neanderthals, microscopic countries too small for their inhabitants, and fast-food restaurants serving as churches.
