One look at this cover and you know that this is an odd collection. These stories are incredibly short, mostly hovering between 3 and 6 (the longest at 16) pages. Quirky, obsessed with sex, and never really establishing any kind of connection-I love them. While most short stories seem to nail down the essence of the characters, these rarely do. But not to the point of distraction.
For me, it might be the highest compliment that I can't verbalize why I find these stories so moving. Art should be visceral, both in the creating and in the reception.
