"I felt more doubtful than usual with 'Goon……" — Jennifer Egan

"I felt more doubtful than usual with 'Goon Squad,' because I knew that the book's genre wasn't easily named - Novel? Stories? Novel-in-stories? - and I worried that its lack of a clear category would count against it. My hopes for it were pretty modest."

— Jennifer Egan
