Sometime last week I finally finished The Nimrod Flip Out by Etgar Keret. Keret also wrote The Girl on the Fridge, which was the book I had found in a puddle this past summer. After having absolutely falling in love with GotF, I had to get this from the UVM Library. I enjoyed it as a read, but I don’t feel as though it quite measured up to The Girl on the Fridge. Like GotF, it is a series of short stories that alone, seem a bit random, but together form a surprisingly cohesive book. Funny, quirky, sweet, absurd, erratic and bizarre are the words I would use to describe it. If any of these adjectives are appealing to you, I suggest you give a shot. Shouldn’t take you too long.
