Praise
Praise for Sam Shepard and Cruising Paradise:
“One of the most perceptive, intelligent and fearless writers of fiction in America today.” —NPR
“Forged from the world with a sharp eye and a careful ear, serving no agenda but literature’s primary and oft-forgotten one: the delight of the reader.” —The New York Times Book Review
“Gutsy, brilliantly imagined, strongly made, fresh and propulsive.” —Chicago Tribune
“In just a few pages, Jim Shepard’s short stories do the work of entire novels. . . . Short story writers almost never get described as ambitious . . . and yet there’s no better word for Jim Shepard, who thinks big and writes short, without a doubt the most ambitious story writer in America.” —The Daily Beast
