Solid 3.5 star review. I really love the short stories and writing styles but some of the stories took me 4 to 5 pages to figure out what was going on and I became confused. Body language was my favorite short story because it was the most complete. I would definitely recommend to friend.
The stories include:
1. A body of water: about a guy who wants to cheat on his very pregnant wife with his highschool sweetheart.
2. Hunger: Drug rep gets a seat in first class next to a real piece of work.
3. Mongoose: girls father is dying and she realizes that she's seen things wrong.
4. Ink: racism
5. The memory palace: staying sober
6. All I have: helping the homeless
7. Body language: investigation of missing brother
8. The blue caboose: a nun goes home to her family house
9. Tito's decent: discovering a new cave
10. Long time no see: visiting relatives and realizing something is wrong
11. Voices: a composer finds herself after the death of her husband
12. Year by year: visiting a dying relative while being old and dying
