Maybe I'm just not the right audience... some of the stories were interesting though, for example the last one. The white elephant one as well.

This collection of short stories contains a multitude of very intriguing stories alongside ones that don’t hit for me. The Undefeated, Hills Like White Elephants, Fifty Grand, and Today is Friday stood out to me as my favorites.

There were some great stories like "The Undefeated" and "Hills like white elephants". A couple of characters reminded me of Cormac McCarthy. Maybe Hemingway is one of his influences. I don't know.

I didn't think these were that amazing. Some decent ones in there, but mostly lacking. Maybe I just prefer his novels (Old Man and the Sea excepted)
