What I loved about this one was that every story was a new adventure and Ausubel managed to surprise me at every turn. Some of the stories were a bit on the confusing side, and I was left wondering what I'd just read and what the point of it was - but for the most part, I was able to just let myself get lost and enjoy the collection. I'd recommend giving this a read, if contemporary fiction that leans toward the magical is your thing. Travelling people, travelling bodies. Ausubel's A Guide to Being Born was one of my favourite short story collections perhaps, um, ever and it spurred a love affair with short story collections for me. Ausubel has a way of writing about bodies and people that inspire dread. Weird, wonderful and a rumination on autonomy, I always loved reading her work. So, I came into this one with high hopes. The first story was so funny and so brilliant, I fell in love with it right away. The rest of the collection is not as weird as A Guide to Being Born. It's ... more domestic, quieter but never less threatening. If you can't decide if Ausubel is for you, I would start with this collection before going onto A Guide to Being Born. I found this really readable and although it was different to A Guide to Being Born, I didn't enjoy it any less. If I had to choose, I'd say A Guide to Being Born is my favourite, but I still really liked it. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
