So good. As soon as I read a few of these short stories in n+1 magazine, I pre-ordered the book. Book finally arrived last week, and I wasn't disappointed. Only downside was the weird looks I kept getting from my wife as I giggled. I would just shake my head and point at the book. These stories are very short -- sometimes just a paragraph -- great for when you don't have extended reading time. While re-reading many of them, I found they were so short because there is never a wasted word. Just tight, brilliant writing.
