2.0
It had everything I want in a short story collection. It was directed to people who tend to result to pain, to fear, to anxiety. But I found this book...lacking? I don't know, I only liked maybe three stories and that's about it. My favorite is absolutely Rambla Triste. If the rest of the collection was written like that, then maybe I would have rated this higher.
Also, the last story has the t slur. I have not seen anyone mention it, which is weird...
