The action of novels and short stories by American George Saunders takes place in a creepy world where murder is a socially acceptable way to increase self-esteem, and mutual hatred is the only thing that binds people of different races and religions.
It is not easy to understand whether the events described by Saunders refer to the near future or to the present, seen in a very unusual context. However, the internal consistency of the world constructed by Saunders makes one wonder: what can each of us do to ensure that the nightmare seen by the writer does not come true?
