Boring books where nothing happens challenge the attention span but so do fast-paced books where something new and nonsensical happens every other word. For this reason I found it a little hard to read and remember anything about for this review. The tether to reality was too flimsy for me at times but i still enjoyed some of it. ***TURNS INTO A BEAUTIFUL HORSE MADE OUT OF ROTTEN MEAT WITH LONG FLOWING WHITE HAIR AND GALLOPS AWAY TO GOOGLE LEONORA CARRINGTON SHORT STORY ENDING EXPLAINED YOUTUBE***

challenging dark mysterious medium-paced

Plot- or character-driven? A mix
Strong character development? It's complicated
Loveable characters? It's complicated
Diverse cast of characters? No
Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I loved this collection of strange, resonant little stories.

This is definitely a case of "it’s not you, it’s me". I guess it was a bit too surreal for me, because I had trouble with keeping up with them, and none of the stories were particularly unforgettable. However Leonora Carrington is a great writer, incredibly creative and imaginative. I enjoyed how satirical some of her stories were, too.
