The one shining star is Jayne Anne Phillips' long, lovely story "In Summer Camps." Poetic, dream-like, and lusciously descriptive, it evolved into her novel, "Shelter." Also worth a mention is Allan Gurganus's great little travel memoir of a trip to a Civil War battlefield where his great-grandfathers fought on opposite sides.
All in all, an issue highlighting Switzerland that's like Switzerland itself--kinda boring. ( )
