Welcome to Derry, Maine. It’s a small city, a place as hauntingly familiar as your own hometown. Only in Derry the haunting is real. They were seven teenagers when they first stumbled upon the horror. Now they are grown-up men and women who have gone out into the big world to gain success and happiness. But the promise they made 28 years ago calls them reunite in the same place where, as teenagers, they battled an evil creature that preyed on the city’s children.

Wow!!!
Revisado: 08-17-23
Stephen King writes about women as if he is still hiding under his sheets with a flashlight in his teenage tidy-whiteys.
I was hoping for a good coming-of-age horror narrative and was instead assaulted by a misogynist, queer-phobic, anti-semitic, adolescent, masturbatory grope into the white-cis-het-male ego. Horrifying, and yet unsurprising.
I should have stopped wasting my time when he quoted Bruce Springsteen (i suppose this excuses all the subsequent Jew jokes).
I literally need to go find a clown in a sewer to cleanse me of this listening experience.
Stephen Weber gets five stars for making every woman in this story sound like a harpy.
Wow!!!

From the opening story, "Willing" - about a second-rate movie actress in her 30s who has moved back to Chicago, where she makes a seedy motel room her home and becomes involved with a mechanic who has not the least idea of who she is as a human being - Birds of America unfolds a startlingly brilliant series of portraits of the unhinged, the lost, the unsettled of our America. Lorrie Moore explores the personal and the universal, the idiosyncratic and the mundane, with all the wit, brio, and verve that have made her one of the best storytellers of our time.

Lorrie Moore's Birds of America is a smart look at Upper Middle class white people in the 90s. Moore is funny and smart way beyond where this audiobook's narrator takes her. I don't blame the narrator for the singular 'gruff male' voice she chooses for every last male character? There may have been a director to implicate? I began listening to this audio book as a fan of Moore's, and now exit completely tired of this narrator's drab interpretation.
