I am reading and thoroughly enjoying S J Bize-Boutte's
collection of poetry and will be singing its praises when i am done with
it. in the meantime, I finished this wonderful collection of short
stories by the same author.
You can always tell prose that was
written by a great poet. The words spring to life off the page and the
attention to the smallest word choice or phrasing option shows expert
craftsmanship. Its not just the plot, the characters, and the stories
that take your breath away, its the way its put together.
These
stories are surprising and vividly alive. When you're done, it will be
like you have had the experiences yourself. It will feel like your own
memory going into the filthy messy home of a friend and discovering
something ugly you wish you hadn't."
