A motley of stories, some as short as a poem. I found a lot of the stories lacking substance. The last and biggest story seemed to be a stream of consciousness, which I wasn’t a fan of.

No one writes or thinks like Hempel. Small gems, every one of them.

Wow, this was beautiful! I’ve never given short stories a chance, but I’m so glad I did.
