pattydsf's review against another edition

I can't believe I never wrote this book down. It was so odd. Good, but odd. Why would someone chose to rewrite a story by F. Scott Fitzgerald? I believe that some of the other stories were also "take-offs" from other famous writers, but I don't remember enough to know which stories.
I am not sorry that I read this book - it was well written and captured my imagination. The author definitely has a way with words. I just can't imagine the jumping off points that Brownstein used. I suspect part of my problem is I am not a city person, so these are not stories I could tell.
