The bus driver who wanted to be God

The bus driver who wanted to be God / Etgar Keret 130 pgs.

This is Keret's first collection of stories and it is, like the others, pretty fabulous.  The description on the cover says is all "Warped and wonderful short stories."

It is hard to pick a favorite but maybe the one about the guy who tries to hire someone to kill him but he is such a wonderful nice guy, no one will actually do it.  He has tried three times now.  Or maybe the one about the death of Rabin - a cat that is hit by a man on a scooter.

Like Keret's other books, you should read slowly and take many breaks because each story is so full it takes time to understand and digest them.
