l’unico racconto interessante è stato quello di kazuo ishiguro (a cui avrei anche dato 4 stelle), per il resto una noia incredibile

Short Story collections are a bit hit and miss with me and this fell into that category. I read 6 1/2 of the stories and none of them really captured my reading vibes.
I feel life is too short to continue reading a book that is boring or non-captivating. Therefore, I dnf'd it.

Rushdie, Ishiguro, and Greene particularly knocked it out of the park. (Naturally.) If you wanted to know, Graham Greene can do more with four pages than most novelists can with forty, and Rushdie can do more with a sentence than most can with a book.
