Big Books of 2010 get shot
» Ebooks won't stop a bullet.
Friend in literary crime and Brooklyn Hater Jason Diamond went out with the Electric Literature gents to shoot some books. They got a shooting range and everything.
Put to the bullet test were books by Adam Levin, Jonathan Franzen, Rick Moody, Joshua Cohen, David Mitchell and probably someone I'm forgetting. Oh yeah, the Kindle got shot at too... guess the iPad is still too precious to shoot.
I won't spoil which one will save you, but also catch the spot-on joke about McSweeney's readers. Thought that was pretty good.
