Lucia Berlin, when she's on, writes stories that are perfectly crisp, vivid, funny, piercing, and thoughtful. I'm so thankful for whatever hype and circumstance let to a remaindered edition of the previous collection joining my bookshelf. This collection is not as tight, but the gems are gems and deserve to be treasured. ( ) Lucia Berlin's stories always make me feel like I'm there living the narrator's life, too, whether it's running around on the border or raising kids with an alcoholic. I do think this collection suffered from the fact that it wasn't intended by the author to be a collection, which "A Manual for Cleaning Women" didn't, perhaps because they were her stronger stories as determined by the publisher. Even though this collection is kind of a "here are the rest!" kind of grouping, many of the stories were beautiful, and I still recommend it to anyone who enjoyed "A Manual." ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

In this collection of short stories, Berlin showcased the gritty glamour that made readers fall in love with her. She finds beauty in the darkest places... and darkness in the seemingly pristine. -- adapted from jacket Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
