careinthelibrary's review against another edition
I listened to this while trying to fall asleep and it definitely disadvantaged this short story collection. I couldn't follow the stories at all and the only thing I really absorbed were some beautiful sentences here and there. I'm going to revisit it another time and leave it unrated because the cause of the leave it unrated because the cause is my scattered and distracted mind.

More lyrical vignettes of island life than short stories, but quite interesting and evocative. Would probably be best appreciated read aloud.
