franklekens 's review for:
Shiloh and Other Stories
by Bobbie Ann Mason
I must have read this in 1994 or 1995 or so, and I remember never having heard of her before and then being very pleasantly surprised, liking these stories a lot. Enough for me to buy one or two also buy her collection Love Life at least, since that's also on my shelf.
And having just now, almost 30 years on, reread the opening story I don't think I've changed my opinion. It's simply a very well done short story. Typical New Yorker story, maybe, in so far as they can be ‘typical’. Anyway, I know I probably won't be disappointed if I take this or Love Life of the shelf again to give it a reread.
