Relationships—romantic, familial, friendly. If they didn’t exist and didn’t malfunction every now and again, would books and movies even exist?
Relationships are at the core of this story collection. A young woman meets a couple on an airplane and they stay in her mind long after. As a woman prepares for her son to get married, her own life and marriage go off track.
Sadly, this collection really didn’t work for me. I kept waiting to connect with a story and they all just fell really flat for me. I love short stories and while I don't love all collections, I usually can find at least a few that resonate. I’ve seen a few tremendously positive reviews of this, so maybe it’s me and not the book.
Oh, well. Onto the next!
