This is a very good story collection that came out in 2018, but it’s from a relatively small university press. The reviews for it are also lauding. The cover lead me to believe it would be another “weird” book like I enjoyed with variable levels from the collections “Heads of Colored People” and “Friday Black”; the title also contributed to this feeling. But it’s not. It’s a really mature collection of stories with a few moments of humor, but almost no strong moments of irony […]
The worst part of writing this statement was recalling all of these events because, honestly, I’d just as soon forget.
