It's hard to find the right words to describe this collection of stories. Charmingly eerie? Eerily charming? Quirky & imaginative & simply perfect. A thread of keys & locks loosely connects the collection, as do characters who show up tangentially in stories other than their own. Helen Oyeyemi is the kind of writer that makes me want to be a writer: she's brilliantly talented in an accessible, inspiring, inviting kind of way.
