Apart from the Virginia Wolf story the rest of the stories were not very enjoyable. Either I couldn't really get the meaning behind the stories or the stories themselves were pretty problematic. Wouldn't personally recommend however I think it was because I struggled to understand the stories and their greater meaning.
