This was fine in a "exactly what it says on the tin" kind of way.

19 short stories is a lot to fit into such a relatively small collection, so these stories are indeed vignettes. The writing is as brutal and grotesque and beautiful, much like the author's acclaimed novel, and there's some interesting hints at commentary on the body.

Recommended if you're looking for a "no plot just horror vibes and make it gory" horror collection.
