COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Excellent collection submitted by klickitat on August 6, 2012, 9:07am I admit, at first I was wary of this book having a "gimic." (Every story in this collection centers around a woman's relationships with men and cats.) I wasn't sure how diverse the stories could possibly be. I was wrong. This is an excellent collection, one I might even recommend to people who don't like short stories. That said, the first few stories are good but nothing special. The last few stories, however, are exceptional. My favorites were: "Human Contact," "In His Shoes" (the central action of which disturbed a horror film buff I know), "The Politeness of Kings," and "By His Wild Lone."
