I have never read a short story collection before so I was unsure of what to expect. It was nice to read a book set in South Africa (where I live) but I didn't love the stories. The narration was a little confusing and I found it hard to follow sometimes. Also, I was sometimes left wanting with certain stories and I didn't feel as if they were given enough time to develop. They really were just like peering through a keyhole  in order to view each character's life, which may have been the point but I wasn't a fan.
