Etgar Keret on NPR

Saturday May 3, 2008

It appears Israeli writer Etgar Keret has a new book of short stories out entitled The Girl on the Fridge. He spoke with NPR about the book and Jellyfish, a film by Keret and his wife which won the Camera D'Or prize at Cannes in 2007.

Keret's stories briefly find rather ordinary chaaracters in surreal situations. The Nimrod Flipout was a wonderful introduction to his work.
