Turkey Shoot
A short American holiday week begins with Rob Clough and his review of Noah Van Sciver's The Hypo, the story of a relatively undersung portion of Abraham Lincoln's young life, and a book that I think rightly made a lot of people reevaluate Van Sciver. Good stuff. Here's a bit of Rob's review:
Van Sciver's greatest achievement in this book is his storytelling restraint. He lets his cross-hatching gets across the grime of a Springfield that wasn't as civilized as its inhabitants might have thought. He wants to show the reader a different side of the Lincoln we grew up reading about in the history books, but also wants the reader to connect this younger man to the future president. More than anything, he wants to show Lincoln as in some ways a very typical young man: he makes stupid decisions, is fickle in his attentions (Lincoln falls for Todd's younger sister), and has no idea what to do with his life (while knowing he wants to do something great), and even engages in cruel humor at someone else's expense.
Elsewhere, there are lots of things to read.
