Recensione:
Eugenides offers a perfect Valentine s Day gift for lovers of literary fiction. His witty introduction, which channels Roman love poet Catullus and woolgathers engagingly about the perishable nature of love, is only the first among numerous pleasures that await the reader of this generously proportioned -- only a cad would call it fat -- gathering of 26 stories, written within the past 120 years....One of the best anthologies of recent years, as well as commanding proof that its editor is as expert a reader as he is a novelist. (Kirkus Reviews (starred))
..these beautifully crafted fictions seem like the offspring of the perfect marriage of style and substance. Eugenides s personal and passionately partisan choices...are eclectic and original...this collection makes us remember how powerful and essential the best short stories are. (Francine Prose in O magazine)
The mix chosen by Eugenides is wonderful. . . . And it is a bigger thrill to realize that however painful the heartbreak, love offers real rewards and these stories are among them. (Los Angeles Times)
