Everything You Want Right Here (Electric Literature's Recommended Reading)

4/5 ( ratings)

Delaney Nolan’s excellent short story, “Everything You Want Right Here,” is about a married couple living for the foreseeable future in a casino called Les Sables. Outside there is desert and more desert, filled with endless sinkholes or possibly one giant sinkhole, threatening to swallow them with its granular, open maw. Inside is an adult playground, hermetically sealed and filled with confections. The Les Sables Casino is like the world’s largest cruise ship if it never docked; every you need is indeed right here, if what you need is a fountain of cane sugar and never fresh fruits or vegetables.

- Halimah Marcus, Editor-in-Chief, Electric Literature's Recommended Reading
