3.0

Since there have been movies, art and models inspired by Hopper paintings, a collection of shorts is nothing out of the ordinary. Most of these I would classify as suspense or horror but the Gail Levin piece, a fictional retelling about the neighborhood preacher who stole most of Hopper's early work was an eye-opener. One of the stories I had seen in another collection, but the rest were new to me. An interesting read.
