haircurtains's review against another edition
“What’s to figure out?…I’m hurtling through time, strapped to an explosive device, my life. Plus, it’s beginning to look like a photo finish—me first, or the world. It’s not so hard to figure out why i’m not sleeping. What i can’t figure out is why everybody else is sleeping.” “Everybody else is sleeping because everybody else is taking pills.”

Exquisite stories from one of the greats of the form. I don't know how she manages to bring characters and worlds alive in such short works, but boy does she ever. There was only one that was less than compelling for me - "The Third Tower" - but I loved all the rest and the last one - "Recalculating" - I could have lived in forever.

Pozycja zupełnie spoza mojej strefy komfortu, która usatysfakcjonowała mnie w (prawie) całej swojej rozciągłości. Było w niej coś niesłychanie świeżego i wsysającego. A takim hipnotyzującym rytmem przekładu można mnie karmić o każdej porze dnia i nocy!

Each story I either really liked or really disliked, no in-betweens.
