"'Pulls' is a classic example of a Gary Lutz story," writes Kevin Sampsell, founder of Future Tense Books, in his introduction to this issue of Recommended Reading. "It passes what I call 'The Lutz Sentence Test'—close your eyes and point anywhere and be astounded by whatever sentence you land on. (I have customers do this all the time when I show them Lutz's books at my bookstore job.) 'Pulls' also displays the kind of push and pull (no punning intended) between the isolating sadness and dark humor that colors much of Lutz's work. My reaction while reading 'Pulls' is that I want to laugh out loud, but stabs of heart-aching sentences suffocate my urges. It is exactly this push/pull craftsmanship that makes Lutz a writer unlike any other. Sometimes I think maybe Lorrie Moore does this too, or Sam Lipsyte—both with crafty precision. But Lutz goes a shade darker, writing with language that would seem confrontational if it weren’t so dang perfect."

Gary's writing really is in a league of its own. He has the ability to lift the reader into the ether and let them witness very telling details most wouldn't notice or use descriptively. This is a stunning piece of work. I would point out, however, that it is a relatively short story. It took me about 15 minutes to read, which surprised me, as I thought it was a novel. But, one could argue that in this very short story, he's delivered more than many stories five times as long. Lutz is a magnificent writer, a real artist.Product details
