Review:
Lawrence Weschler Sarah Vowell's uncanny voice -- by turns wise and wise-ass, wry and celebratory, heartrending and hilarious -- translates seamlessly to the page: equal parts Betty Boop and Dorothy Parker, Mark Twain and Walt Whitman, Woody Guthrie and Arlo Guthrie. She pegs herself as "a typical American mutt." American she undoubtedly (unabashedly!) is, but typical? Hardly. This American Mutt is easily the year's Best in Show.
Synopsis:
A collection of autobiographical stories describes the American experience of the author's life, from her childhood among devout Christians to her present incarnation as a radio host.
