Fiction. Politics & History. Edited by T. Cooper and Adam Mansbach, this anthology takes on the challenge of creating counter-narratives in an age when rampant political dishonesty infects the always-ongoing process of history's creation. In A FICTIONAL HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES (WITH HUGE CHUNKS MISSING), a diverse group of writers offer up accounts of history not written by the winners, complicating traditional, received views of the American narrative with their own revitalized depictions. Contributors include: Darin Strauss, Daniel Alarcon, Amy Bloom, Kate Bornstein, Alex Chee, Ron Kovic, Paul LaFarge, David Rees, Keith Knight, Felicia Luna Lemus, Valerie Miner, Tommy O'Malley, Neal Pollack, Scott Poulson-Bryant, Sara Schulman and Benjamin Weissman.
