About 27 minutes in to
Monday's episode of
The Next Chapter, Shelagh Rogers and Antanas Sileika talk about Andrew Steinmetz's Weston Prize-shortlisted
This Great Escape. It was an honest take, with Antanas discussing some of the frustrations he experienced as a reader attempting to navigate the fragmented facts of Michael Paryla's life, but the ultimate conclusion was positive: he called it a worthwhile, interesting, complex, existential book. He even threw in the names of a few high modernists as comp titles. And who doesn't want to be compared to Beckett? No, really. Who?
