About Yeoman

A Vintage Shorts “Short Story Month” Selection
 
Who explores the final frontier? The ship has reached the last world.  Beamed down from the transporter bay is the captain, the XO, the medic, the security chief, the ethnographer, and finally an unnamed yeoman, the narrator of Charles Yu’s mind-bending journey into the science fiction unknown. And the yeoman knows one thing, if he knows anything at all: the yeoman always dies.
 
In the tradition of Jonathan Lethem and Douglas Adams, National Book Foundation 5 Under 35 award winner Charles Yu presents a story of searching (not wandering) and the galactic limits of home, from the utterly original collection Sorry Please Thank You.

Praise for Charles Yu and Sorry Please Thank You

“Lovely and heartfelt . . . A brilliantly manic ride.” —The Wall Street Journal

“I don’t know that there’s a better story-bending talent at work than Yu since the rise of George Saunders . . . a tour-de-force.” —Alan Cheuse, NPR.org

“As readers, we are all the better for Yu’s astonishing mix of wild imagination and meticulous restraint. Of the three polite phrases that comprise his title—Sorry Please Thank You—only the last is of true relevance here. No sorries, Charles. Just thanks.” —Los Angeles Review of Books
