PRAISE FOR ETGAR KERET

“Keret is a brilliant writer … completely unlike any writer I know. He is the voice of the next generation.”

—Salman Rushdie

“Keret can do more with six strange and funny paragraphs than most writers can with 600 pages.”

—Kyle Smith, People

“I read [ The Nimrod Flipout ] in bed beside my boyfriend who was reading a much less interesting book and I kept shouting, ‘Wow’ and ‘No way’ and ‘Oh my god’ and my boyfriend would say, ‘What? what?’ and I’d shake my head and say, ‘You wouldn’t get it. You just have to read it.’ After I finished the book I immediately became more deadpan, more ridiculous and more in touch with my own mortality. My boyfriend was impressed with the new me and I told him, ‘It’s that book, The Nimrod Flipout —it’s opened up a whole new world for me.’ Now he’s reading it, just so we can stay on the same plane of reality together.”

—Miranda July, Salon

“Stories that are short, strange, funny, deceptively casual in tone and affect, stories that sound like a joke but aren’t—Etgar Keret is a writer to be taken seriously.”

—Yann Martel, author of Life of Pi

“[ The Nimrod Flipout is] the best work of literature to come out of Israel in the last five thousand years—better than Leviticus and nearly as funny. Each page is a cut and polished gem. Do yourself a favor: walk over to the counter and buy this book now.”

—Gary Shteyngart, author of Super Sad True Love Story

“Etgar Keret’s short stories are fierce, funny, full of energy and insight, and at the same time often deep, tragic, and very moving.”

—Amos Oz, author of A Tale of Love and Darkness

“To call Keret apolitical would be to miss a seminal moment in the history of Jewish literature. Indeed, it would be like pigeonholing Isaac Bashevis Singer—at whose knee Keret seems to have learned the art of magic realism, only to use it with more discipline than his master … Keret is a cynic who can’t manage to shake off his hopefulness—the most reliable kind of narrator there is. His true ancestor may not be Singer but Woody Allen, who, in his earlier years, summoned the gods of fantasy to help argue his most famous philosophical insights. And Keret is exhibiting Annie Hall –era talent here, churning out gem after gem.”

—Alana Newhouse, The Washington Post Book World

“These stories exude a force and zing that some readers will find life-changing.”

—Jesse Berrett, San Francisco Chronicle
