This issue has a striking, cartoon cover that folds out to create a 3D optical illusion, although I could never get it to work. The contents are divided into three sections, each delineated by different colored paper. There's a new authors section (great excerpt here from Salvador Plascencia's 2005 novel, "The People of Paper"), a Roddy Doyle story (a similar story to his novel, "The Commitments"), and a section of 29 very brief stories by various authors each written in twenty minutes.

Issue 12 features 12 stories by 12 new writers, a story by McSweeney regular Roddy Doyle and a selection of 20-minute flash fiction curated by Dave Eggers. As always with McSweeney's, it's a mixed bag and your enjoyment of it is going to depend to some extent on your tolerance for hipster literary showboating. Highlights for me were the Doyle story and the piece about growing up in Ceausescu's Romania by Andrea Dezso that reads like dystopian Elena Ferrante. ( )
Interestingly done, but another volume in which there just wasn't much that held my attention very well. The design is great, though, and I love the idea of the twenty-minute stories. ( )
