Not to be a Torrey Peters stan but I have had this saved since I first saw the announcement. Amazing as usual, I need more books like Stag Dance (the story) and despite seeing “a novel and stories” I was shocked when the second short story started. My official ranking is Stag Dance (perfect), The Chaser (felt it fr), Infect Your Friends and Loved Ones (I would read a longer version bc wow), then The Masker (ah!). Anyway go consume all of her work even her social media posts bc it’ll make your life better <3
