Normally I'm not a big short story collection girly. I get heavily invested in characters and it's difficult for me when I only have 5-30 pages with them.
But this collection is goddamn brilliant. I didn't "put it together", so to speak, until the very final story but consider my mind blown.
My favorite stories in the collection are the epynonomous story, Mudder Tongue (heartbreaking), In the Greenhouse, and The Third Factor.
