    About this ebook

    “Part Henry Darger, part Donald Barthelme, and part comic strip, Sarah Sarai's The Young Orator spins a dark charming tale out of the call to make some money and the wonders of getting lost a little while.” – Paul Lisicky, author of Lawnboy and Famous Builder


    “In The Young Orator Sarah Sarai offers her readers the gritty truth and surreal world of family life viewed from ‘life’s epicenter’ which is, of course, an eight-year-old girl. With the true vision of well-written fiction, Sarai takes her reader on a road trip full of laughable drama and the messy humanity of being alive while moving as a family unit through the world. Word by word, sentence by sentence, a great read.” – Sally Bellerose, author of The Girls Club
