It Occurs to Me That I Am America: New Stories and Art

It Occurs to Me That I Am America: New Stories and Art

In time for the one-year anniversary of the Trump Inauguration and the Womenâ€™s March, this provocative, unprecedented anthology features original short stories from thirty bestselling and award-winning authorsâ€”including Alice Walker, Richard Russo, Walter Mosley, Joyce Carol Oates, Alice Hoffman, Neil Gaiman, Michael Cunningham, Mary Higgins Clark, and Lee Childâ€”with an introduction by Pulitzer Prizeâ€“winning author Viet Thanh Nguyen.

When Donald Trump claimed victory last November, the US literary world erupted in indignation. Many of Americaâ€™s leading writers and artists openly resist the current administrationâ€™s dogma and earliest policy moves, and theyâ€™re not about to go gently into that good night. In It Occurs to Me That I Am America: New Stories and Art, more than thirty of the most acclaimed modern writers consider the fundamental ideals of a free, just, and compassionate democracyâ€”through fiction.

Featuring artwork by some of todayâ€™s best known artists, cartoonists, and graphic novelistsâ€”including Art Spiegelman, Roz Chast, Marilyn Minter, and Eric Fischlâ€”who cover political, social, and cultural issues, this anthology is a beautiful, enduring collection that will resonate with anyone concerned with the contest for our American soul.
