A review by carriealibrarian
A Fanatic Heart by Edna O'Brien

5.0

Every one of O'Brien's stories brings me immense satisfaction as a reader. Every story is so rich, so different from the next. She sets stories in diverse decades and geographies and creates characters with differing moral centers, yet remains convincing in her observations. She is an expert at the art of writing. I recommend this collection to anyone looking to study stories that are well-crafted, yet enormously entertaining. O'Brien illuminates situations so that as a reader, I feel nothing is left out.
