I enjoyed a few of the stories, my stands outs were:

Bad Behaviour
We Eat Our Daughters
Shirley from A Small Place

I will definitely say to stay away from the audiobook. The accents do not do this book justice and they sound stiff and forced.

It served no purpose to me. The short stories had no resolution so why?
