Praise
“[O the Clear Moment is] classic McClanahan: the tale of the perennial underdog who, despite all odds, redeems himself in the end, snatching a moment of dignity from the clutches of humiliation.” —San Francisco Chronicle
“O the Clear Moment is a vivid expression of this aesthetic, an ‘implied autobiography’ . . . a perfect encapsulation of what McClanahan’s been up to all along.” —Los Angeles Times
“Playful, self–deprecating and wickedly sharp, McClanahan’s nine autobiographical short stories delve into youthful shenanigans and poignant first love in the 1940s . . . McClanahan muses on the writing life and classic Americana with giddy nostalgia and gently barbed humor.” —Publishers Weekly (starred)
