I just found a sample of Lorrie Moore's latest novel, A Gate at the Stairs, on Amazon.com. It's supposedly from the point of view of a college student looking for work.
Please, o all-wise flist, go read the first few pages. Then tell me if I'm completely crazy to find this critically lauded book a precious, pretentious, oh-so-literary creation that bears as much resemblance to the inner monologue of a college student looking for work as it does to the collected works of Marie Corelli?
Thank you.
