RaveThe Jewish Book CouncilThroughout each story, Keret shrewdly and insightfully inhabits the first person of various characters who reside in this alternate reality ... Keret uses our collective cultural memories of atrocities, like the Holocaust, in evocative ways to ask the reader to reflect on how humans tend to categorize different forms of oppression of marginalized peoples by importance based on their heritage ... there is a sense of whimsy that comes through in Keret’s unique and skillfully translated voice ... The stories in Fly Already share just this: human experiences — sometimes intimate, embarrassing, whimsical, and cynical, but always genuine accounts of various expressions of the human condition.
