How to Dodge a Cannonball is funnier than the Civil War should ever be. It follows Anders, a teenage idealist who enlists and reenlists to shape the American Future—as soon as he figures out what that is, who it includes, and why everyone wants him to die for it. Escaping his violently insane mother is a bonus. Anders finds honor as a proud Union flag twirler—until he’s captured. Then he tries life as a diehard Confederate—until fate asks him to die hard for the Confederacy at Gettysburg. Barely alive, Anders limps into a Black Union regiment in a stolen uniform.

Tragicómica y melancólica, esta novela nos presenta un mundo plúmbeo y totalitario, dominado por fuerzas ciegas e impersonales. Un escenario humano desolador en el que la inteligencia es anulada por la fuerza bruta y la violencia, y en el que el caos arrastra irremediablemente a unos personajes que, entre el conformismo y la insignificancia, no aciertan a crear un orden nuevo menos cruel y menos gris. El estallido de violencia no alcanza siquiera el rango de revolución y la vida transcurre, en esta pequeña y anónima ciudad húngara, sumida en una atmósfera de terror y amarga ironía.

El narrador es el propio autor de esta novela. Varón de 44 años. Está escrita en presente como tiempo verbal y ambientada en Cádiz (España) justo antes del estallido de la guerra civil.

Esto le da un toque de cercanía, como si estuviera acompañando al personaje y cuestionándolo o aconsejándolo, aunque el personaje no lo escuche directamente.

Obituary writer Bud Stanley isn’t really living his best life. He’s fallen into a funk after a divorce. (She left him for another man, who, in fairness, was far more interesting).

Can a goldfish kill a man? Hypothetically, but it would have to be an extraordinary goldfish and not much of a man. Thus we have the tale of Bubbles, a mutant goldfish, and Les Wellborne, a human resources manager in St. Louis, Missouri.
