Angela F. (barrelofmonkeys) - reviewed on 7/12/2009 + 4 more book reviews

The first book I have ever read with a warning on the very first page. The warning tells the reader that these are very depressing stories and should not be read all at once. Wow. The stories themselves are dark, depressing, and wonderful. Some feel a bit dated, this was written in 1974, but what I was most surprised by is how prescient the author was about the future. The story I like most is "Knox," a tale about a woman with an extraordinary gift, who desperately wants to get rid of it, and those around her are all to willing to take it from her.
