The collection could be more balanced, especially considering the number of M to F writers. I also wished the stories were published in chronological order. It was weird to start with Woody Allen (1966) and follow up with E.F. Benson (1912). Going in order would have shown some progression in the genre, rather than bouncing all over history.
