Deceit and Other Possibilities by Vanessa Hua

5.0

Every story in this collection is worth poring over, from its chosen setting--an airplane; a village in Africa; a campground--to its characters.

Hua genuinely understands the need for every word to count. She explores the conceit of immigrant life from varied angles in this book, and never disappoints. Pick this one up. You won't be sorry. I read one or two each night before I went to bed and found myself looking at people in different ways each following day.
