I got it from the library and I returned it with my other books because I’m not in the mood to read it right now.

This is a really, really good short story collection. Even though it's only January, I already know that the story, "Solo Works for Piano," will be one of the best--and my favorite--things I'll read all year.

Immaculate. Each story feels complete, though I could spend more time in them as well; each fits well enough to make this collection feel intentional.
