I thought it was an ugly little book that had nothing to recommend it except it’s length.Hoped that it would have something compassionate to offer about assisted dying but poor Eden kept alive long enough for the other characters to work through their own seedy ,little self-interested guilt.

Sounds amazing, Susie! I’m planning on reading this one next month in between nonfiction reads. Reading mostly nonfiction is always a little tough for me, so it will be good to have an excellent short fiction book to look forward to.

In reply to Sarah's Book Shelves. Yay! I'm so glad you liked it as much as I did. Top ten material, for sure. Now I want to go back and read his earlier book Dark at the Crossing which was nominated for the National Book Award last year and is also on the short side.

Just finished this book and wow. Just wow. Repeated punches to the gut (and I mean that in the best way possible). Who ever thought an author could pack that much into less than 200 pages.

Susie this is such a fantastic review! I read it yesterday and thought I commented but I guess I didn’t:) I wouldn’t have thought much about wanting to read this but now I can’t wait for my library hold to come in
