The Bus Driver Who Wanted to be God & Other Stories, by Etgar Keret

Keret’s very short stories are long jokes, absurdist sketches, and mordant commentary on modern life, especially as it’s lived in Israel. I enjoyed this book well enough, but all of my favorite stories are elsewhere. These stories seem thin in places, but, overall, it’s a solid entry in his body of work.
