towardinfinitybooks's review against another edition
Feel very detached and ambivalent about the stories I read so far. They all feel very one note. The narrators in the first two stories play an active role in their storylines, unlike the third narrator who seems to be more of a third party recounting what she was told by her mother, yet everyone sounds the same. I can't tell if this is related to the translation. I did notice that of the three stories I read, the narrators spend a lot of time telling instead of showing - 90% of the time, we are in their thoughts and there is very little that is left to be understood between the lines. Unfortunately, this wasn't for me.
