Something Rich and Strange: Selected Stories by Ron Rash

5.0

‘Something Rich and Strange’ was my first experience of reading Ron Rash, and what an experience it was. This collection of short stories from the heart of Appalachia just bowled me over. The stories are short, but the characters are well developed and everything is delivered with such feeling. It took about ten minutes to read a story and then thirty minutes to think about that story. Isn’t that what reading should be about sometimes?
