From Israel's most popular and acclaimed young writer--"Stories that are short, strange, funny, deceptively casual in tone and affect, stories that sound like a joke but aren't" (Yann Martel, author of Life of Pi)
Already featured on This American Life and Selected Shorts and in Zoetrope: All Story and L.A. Weekly, these short stories include a man who finds equal pleasure in his beautiful girlfriend and the fat, soccer-loving lout she turns into after dark; shrinking parents; a case of impotence cured by a pet terrier; and a pessimistic Middle Eastern talking fish. A bestseller in Israel, The Nimrod Flipout is an extraordinary collection from the preeminent Israeli writer of his generation.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Farrar, Straus and GirouxISBN-13:9780374222437ISBN-10:374222436UPC:9780374222437Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Short Stories (single author), World LiteratureBook Topic:Middle EastSize:8.32 x 6.74 x 0.49 inchesWeight:0.3505Product ID:SCR5FAKS28
