Short Cuts: Selected Stories by Raymond Carver

5.0

It's a bit surprising that something so damned ordinary and minimalist can somehow be so brilliant. And it all felt so dirty... I swear I could smell the grime and stale sweat and dog piss whilst I was reading. It felt a bit like a Bukowski or maybe Jim Thompson but with all the backstabbing and crime removed. Not all the stories included here were 5 stars but those that were will probably stay with me forever.
