Akiva Reads

Fütchi Perf

by Kevin Czap

Why carefully craft a dystopian nightmare when you can craft a small quiet utopia that makes your reader cry because it highlights the brokenness everywhere else?

"Theme" and "Nudists" are the stories I have the strongest feelings about right now, but this calls for a reread, because Czap's style is kind of hard to parse. That difficulty is also poetic, though. 4.5*
