Interesting Interview in Review Review

Ted McLoof's Very Long Sentence

There's that famous story about the short story contest Hemingway won with the story "For sale: baby shoes never worn." With what we know about Hemingway's lack of parenting skill, we have a great reason to focus on the writing and ignore the mythology of the public-literary persona.

Going the opposite way, here's an interview with writer Ted McLoof and his very long sentence-story called "Space, Whether, and Why."

Also a fan of Hornby, I like how McLoof admits he reads High Fidelity every time he's broken up with.
