Break It Down by Lydia Davis

3.0

Break It Down (1986) by Lydia Davis is a collection of whimsical and melancholy short stories surrounding different, faceless people suffering in the quirky depths of neuroticism. I read a review once that made the person check to see if Lydia was still alive. You worry for these characters and even a little bit for Lydia after reading these stories. Recommended.
