Out of this collection I enjoyed Goodbye my love, cursed bunny, and the head. The rest of the stories fell flat for me. This collection felt like it didn’t know whether it wanted to go fully into the weird horror and science fiction depths or into a morality tale and therefore for me it didn’t get at either of these areas very well. The translation also I think made some of the stories feel a bit stilted in certain parts though you could usually get at the central themes. Overall I wanted to like this a lot more than I actually did and it took me awhile to get through despite the short length.
