Fish Soup is worth the price of admission for the final novella "sexual education", alone. This piece is a searing, powerful, all-too-relatable take on the hypocrasies of catholicism for anyone who has been anywhere near the faith. Unfortunately, I found the rest of the collection to be more or less forgettable (although the tilte story was at least an interesting little work of surrealism).
