This collection of stories is dark yet bracing, with some prose that just stops you in your tracks. The title story took my breath away. I read it, and then immediately read it again.
The stories were, by and large, well-written, but I think I get somewhat fatigued reading so many stories about extramarital affairs and inappropriate relationships between fathers and daughters. The last two stories in the collection I thought were best, and I really enjoyed the last story. It was less bleak and more hopeful than the others.
I really liked the energy of the stories in this collection--they were paced well and never boring.
