Reviews
I did not enjoy reading this book of short stories. It took entirely too much effort and proved not worth the work. I felt that the author was self-indulgent and had disdain for the reader, as she forthrightly says in the last story: "I might describe them--I have the words for it--but your prurience does not interest me; neither does your disbelief." With more than 30 stories in this little volume it disappointed me that none of the women featured touched a responsive note in me. After reading and enjoyed Enright's "The Green Road," I found myself greatly disappointed by this volume.
