Breath-taking collection
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This diverse collection of stories runs the gamut from sly humor to dark melancholy. Like all collections, some of these stories are better than others, but the best ones are awe-inspiring. The title story, in particular, is brilliant and haunting. This man is a masterful writer.One of the best things about Jablokov's writing is the infusion of ideas that elevates great characterization and imagination. His novels, though I love them, can ramble. His short stories, however, distill his best points and this collection is a rewarding read.
