"This is a really good collection. Read "Some Other, Better Otto" and "Accomplice" and especially "Intervention." If a short story collection is bad, it leaves me horribly disappointed. So I don't risk it often, but the Best American series are usually decent."
"Favorites: In the Gloaming, by Alice Elliott Dark The Voyage Out, by John Rolfe Gardiner The Chasm, by John Keeble Things Left Undone, by Christopher Tilghman"
