America's culture is shaped by an underlying strangeness, reflecting the contradictions in its spirituality and secularism, as seen through its literature.
Joy Williams's Concerning the Future of Souls blends horror and humor in a deadpan style, reminiscent of Marilynne Robinson and Cormac McCarthy, creating a unique literary voice.
Williams's work is often characterized by a philosophical bait and switch, blending wry humor with profound insights, making it hard for readers to put down.
In her collection, Williams’s use of titles acts as a punchline, drawing readers into the story through clever, unexpected captions that enhance the experience.
