4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyably different stories

I read the recent profile of Ms. Davis in the New Yorker and picked this as my first sampling of her writing. It is definitely worth it; her style is distinctive but not disconcerting, and the stories are all rewarding, even the really short 1-3 sentence ones. They seem intensely personal and biographical at times, but she doesn't push things too hard or too far. I will be buying and reading more of her work and wish I had known about her sooner.
