Title: i love this collection.
Review: My friend loaned me her copy of this book to read because I love modern short fiction. I am so impressed by this author and found the characters compelling and beautifully written. Even when the pace of her writing is languid, tension, strife and pain lurk barely beneath the surface of her stories. I am only disappointed that she has not written more books. I would hate for anyone to pigeonhole her as simply a 'southern' writer because her characters are truly universal. Lear is a shining talent and I can't recommend her enough.
