Noisy Outlaws, Unfriendly Blobs and Some Other Things...

(Mc Sweeney's)

McSweeney's has assembled a sublimely playful anthology of stories for YAs (young adults as they're called in the booksellers' trade). Here, we'll talk to editor Ted Thompson and some of the writers (Jonathan Safran Foer and Kelly Link) about how the stories were chosen, who the target audience is, and how it feels to be associated with the very hip folks at McSweeney's.
