I'm glad I'm going to talk about this book with people, because I feel like I don't fully understand it. There were some stories I really liked, and some I struggled to figure out the meaning of. It doesn't mean it's a bad short story collection, I just for some reason was expecting something a bit more direct and less open to interpretation.
