The littlest hitler by ryan boudinot
The Littlest Hitler is a 2006 collection of short stories by Ryan Boudinot.
Contents
Plot
The book has characters who have occupations such as drugstore workers and pharmacists. The short stories have things such a cannabalistic mother, serial killers, zombies and terrorists. The last story is called "The Newholy" which has to do with immigration.
Reception
A Publishers Weekly review says, "Reminiscent of early Rick Moody or the short stories of Daniel Handler, each of Boudinot's 13 stories is a microcosm of weirdness imbued with imagination and maniacal wit". A Kirkus Reviews review says "When Boudinot writes shtick, he's tiresome. When he writes fully developed stories, he's abrasive, thought-provoking and explosively funny". The book was Publishers Weekly's book of the year.
