The Collected Stories | Reynolds Price
Pickpick

Long book with quite a variety of stories short and long. Some are better than others and some are a bit odd. Mostly really good. Many have a Southern locale and somewhat autobiographical. One is about Dachau camp and the last is in Jerusalem. Worthwhile.

Variations | JULIET. JACQUES

Pickpick

This is a brilliant collection. Juliet Jacques gives a potted history of the experience of trans people in the UK and Ireland through short stories set across over a century, from the Victorian era to the present day. I really enjoyed the different forms and styles of the stories, ranging from a series of letters in 1939 to a blog set in 2014. Highly recommend this.

#ReadHarder challenge 23: a book of short stories

Bookwomble I thought, “I've not heard of the writer, Varia Tions,“ then I was like, “Ohhh!“ 🤪😄 8mo
arlenefinnigan @Bookwomble hang on, can you see the photo? Are images loading for you? 8mo
Bookwomble @arlenefinnigan I've switched to the website rather than using the app, as photos are showing on the former 😊 8mo
arlenefinnigan @Bookwomble ah, good to know! 8mo

#booked2023 #shortstorycollection @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage @alisiakae I don't read many short stories but heard one of this collection on the New Yorker podcast.The prose is precisely written as it explores the lives of mainly men in America. From 2 yng men in a fist fight to visiting a brother in a psych unit, it explores those not seen, including homeless veterans but also a short piece abt his heroes Carver+cobain. Lovely writing .

Cinfhen Short stories are hit or miss for me too but this collection sounds great 😊 8mo

Just a list of the five short stories available in the collection:

1) Visiting Rebecca
2) Investment of Spirits
3) The Haunting of a Guard
4) Soul Explorations
5) Called Home

I'm sure you may want a review or a rating from me on it, but I can't.
I wrote it. :)
