So beautifully written, I was transported in each story to another time and place. So many conflicting emotions. It's a book I will read over and over again.

Every act of communication is a miracle of translation.
“The Paper Menagerie and Other Stories” is a collection of short stories traversing the science fiction and fantasy genre. The author’s note at the beginning itself deserves five stars. It was so powerful.

Clichéd plot. Use of children as a plot device. Expository in nature. Calculatedly tear-jerker.
I don't see why this has won all the prestigious awards.
