A review by fantasynovel
Best Debut Short Stories 2021: The PEN America Dau Prize by Beth Piatote, Kali Fajardo-Anstine, Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah, Yuka Igarashi, Sarah Lyn Rogers

4.0

The stories were written with varying level of skill, but that makes sense for a book of debut short stories. In fact, I'd say a lot of the pleasure of reading this collection comes from seeing authors at the very beginning of their careers. I especially liked the last story, "The First Time I Said It".
