panohchoc's review against another edition
3.0
First time reading a book of short stories like this. I'm glad it was recommended to me because I probably wouldn't have picked it up on my own. Overall, I like it. I struggled a bit with some of the really short ones because there was often too little context to catch any meaning. Maybe that's the point.. but I just didn't get anything out of them. I really liked some of the longer ones.

This is great, really enjoying it. It's very long so I just keep it by my bed and read a story or two every so often. Kind of don't want to rush through it.

Fantastically textual, sinuously linked short story collection. My full review here: http://www.pankmagazine.com/pankblog/reviews/fast-machine-by-elizabeth-ellen-a-review-by-helen-mcclory/
