Media Reviews
"Remarkable. A brightly lit noir about the scariness of getting what you want. Anybody who has ever had the 'Now What's?'" should read that book."--David Carr, New York Times "Wonderful group of stories by Kevin Morris. Lyrical and honest in its look at modern American life. Buy this and you will love it."-- Gus Van Sant "Kevin Morris is that rare writer who bridges the class divide, illuminating the lives of working class characters and affluent professionals with equal authenticity and insight. WHITE MAN'S PROBLEMS is a revelatory collection that marks the arrival of striking new voice in American fiction."--Tom Perrotta "Life undermines the pursuit of success and status in these rich, bewildering stories...a finely wrought and mordantly funny take on a modern predicament by a new writer with loads of talent."--Kirkus Reviews "These brutal and heartfelt stories will knock you out."--Jim Gavin, author of Middle Men "Kevin Morris's voice is Updike and Cheever and Carver"--Eric Roth, Academy Award-winning screenwriter of Forrest Gump "These clear-eyed morality tales showcase lightheartedness and angst in equal measure...Morris's themes are universal in scope."--Foreword Reviews
