Mc_cart_ny Wow, that cover is seriously gorgeous! Reminds me of van Gogh. 8y
mrsa_d Thank you @Liberty! The first sentence of the description for this one is "An interview with the last speaker of a language." I'm already hooked! 8y

This is a tough one! Karen Russell's short stories are some of my favorite, but Miranda July has my heart ❤ #READATHONSTORIES @Liberty

TheBookStacker I love Karen Russell! 8y
Aninski @TheBookStacker she's so great!! I was obsessed with the atmosphere of her stories when I read 8y

#readathonstories @Liberty I love Sherwood Anderson's voice. A quote from "The Egg" (not a part of this collection; I read it in a lit class) is one of my email taglines & even got me an interview once ☺

My post for @Liberty 's readathon giveaway #READATHONSTORIES! I loved this book. It didn't feel quite like short stories because they are all connected but it was amazing. I recommend this again and again to friends. Read it! Now! 👍🏽😄

Mad Hope | Heather Birrell

@Liberty #READATHONSTORIES
Heather Birrell's Mad Hope is a beautiful collection of stories that deals with complex issues of coming of age, abortion, life and death, pregnancy and other important topics. The motif of frogs runs throughout the work, suggesting human metamorphosis through trial to be the central theme of the collection. I include #ThomasGlave's #TheTorturer'sWife too because I love it.

I know I'm probably too slow on the draw here, but @Liberty asked about books of short stories. Here are some favorites and some TBR. Karen Russell will always break me. #READATHONSTORIES

aeeklund @KCorter "My Father's Mask" will forever be one of my favorites. 8y
KCorter @aeeklund It's interesting that you mention that one, because that was the story I felt went completely over my head. I recognized that I should be impressed by it, but I just felt more confused than anything. Any help would be welcome! Would you mind sharing with me your take on the story, even if you have to mark it as a spoiler? 8y
KCorter P.S. My favorites were Pop Art and Voluntary Committal. 😊 8y
