Fox 8: A Story | George Saunders
89 posts | 103 read | 78 to read
From the author of the instant New York Times bestseller Tenth of December comes a darkly comic short story, a fable about the all too real impact that we humans have on the environmentnow available for the first time as an eBook. Fox 8 has always been known as the daydreamer in his pack, the one his fellow foxes regarded with a knowing snort and a roll of the eyes. That is, until Fox 8 develops a unique skill: He teaches himself to speak Yuman by hiding in the bushes outside a house and listening to childrens bedtime stories. The power of language fuels his abundant curiosity about peopleeven after danjer arrives in the form of a new shopping mall that cuts off his food supply, sending Fox 8 on a harrowing quest to help save his pack. Told with his distinctive blend of humor and pathos, Fox 8 showcases the extraordinary imaginative talents of George Saunders, whom the New York Times called the writer for our time.

I have mixed feelings about this book. I love the illustrations, the story, the message. But I‘m very much annoyed by the way it was written.

Fox 8 writes a letter to us humans and asks us to be nicer to nature and it‘s animals. But he is not very good at spelling (he is a fox after all), so it is written like he hears the words. i also felt at times that he was „too cool“ in his way of speaking. It might be the translation though.
3/5⭐️

This rating is probably more a reflection on my state of mind than this novella, but I guess I just wasn‘t ready for a story told by a fox. The fox has learned human by reading on the lips, so the writing is full of mistakes.

I guess this is what can happen when you borrow a book from the library and don‘t know anything about the story.

6th book finished for #AwesomeAugust

Went whimsical with this George Saunders story while making quiche for tonight‘s dinner. It‘s going to be nearly 100 degrees here today, so I baked early in the day.

The story combines a fox‘s perspective on human activity with some morality lessons. All in a unique linguistic patois that‘s vintage Saunders.

BarbaraTheBibliophage @batsy Thank you—it was yummy. I just needed to use a lot of stuff from the fridge so it has: onion, green pepper, spinach, broccoli, diced tomato, mushroom and cooked ham. Sprinkled some feta cheese on top with, of course, the eggs and milk / cream. Sorry, no specific recipe to point you to. 4y

No one writes a better short story than George Saunders—his stories are sometimes shocking, sometimes profound, sometimes utterly ridiculous, always thought-provoking, & always full of wit, compassion, & humanity. In this fable about a fox who tries to save his pack from the construction of a mall & devastation of their habitat, Saunders looks at the intersection of man & nature from nature‘s POV—& what nature sees isn‘t so great. 💔Recommended.

Narrated by a fox who has taught himself the human language by listening to a human read bedtime stories to her children, the voice is endearing and funny. This creative short story conveys a plea for us human to be nicer and show greater kindness. An earnest and hopeful story with simple and sparse illustrations.

rockpools @LibrarianRyan Stamped is ‘normal‘, buy a stamp, stick it on. Franked is cheaper for businesses/people putting bulk mail through- they‘ll get a franking machine, which can weigh letters and print a ‘stamp‘ and business details on. I guess they‘re invoiced for postage used. 5y
LibrarianRyan @RachelO okay. We have that here. Buts all still just a stamp even if it‘s printed. Thanks. 5y

A letter to the Yumans, asking them to ‘be niser‘, from Fox 8 who learnt to speak Yuman by listening to bedtime stories thro an open window.

It‘s beautifully done, not what I was expecting - a tiny book, funny, sweet, dark & no happy endings. It‘s made me want to read more by George Saunders - he has an interesting take on the world.

Reading on the seawall would be lovely if it wasn‘t so windy. I‘m still finding sand in places sand shouldn‘t be!

At first glance, I thought this would be a quick, funny listen while prepping my TBR jar.

Instead, I found a humorous yet heartbreaking story, told from the POV of a fox who learned to speak “Yuman”, and has used this skill to seek an “eksplanashun” as to why people are so mean to his pack. “Danjer” arrives in the form of construction and evil people, which quickly turn Fox 8 from a day-dreamer filled with curiosity to a fearful and quaking Fox.

Fox 8 is a modern fable told from the perspective of an endearing fox. Without moralizing, this short story (in a small book) makes us think about our environment, politics, immigration and how we treat each other. Humorous and bittersweet, I recommend ‘Fox 8‘ in book format in order to see the lovely illustrations and the sweet way words are spelled. 🦊 ❤️

Fox 8 is truly, a story of our time, and Saunders is at his absolute finest here. Fox 8 is a fable of the cruelty of humankind. In it, we are exceptional, creative, and powerful. But we are also, egotistic, selfish, unthinking, and cruel. It is a timely reminder that we are not all that inhabit this earth. Saunders writes with both humour and tenderness, constructing a story that is as confronting as it is entertaining.
