I enjoyed these stories immensly. Wendt clearly knows his craft, each story is meticoulously constructed and the writing style adapts to each one. Plus, the author/narrator is really funny.

This was a well-written and diverse collection of short stories that was very enjoyable to read. Funny in parts, heartbreaking in others.
