I loved the writing style, the conversational tone full of asides. Although I’m sure I missed many of the religious references—I have no clue about the canaries—I liked this.
This was very different from “Rabbits for Food,” and that’s not a complaint—the author seems very versatile.

Story about Valentine, a Jewish girl who associates herself with the Virgin Mary, gets pregnant without losing her virginity, and disappears.
Struck by the sadness of those around her.
