4.0 out of 5 stars
typical gilchrist,
By A Customer
This review is from: Light Can Be Both Wave and Particle (Paperback)
I didn't enjoy the collection of short stories as much as some of her others (particularly Age of Miracles and Victory Over Japan), but any Ellen Gilchrist is fun and engaging. This book features familiar feisty characters like Rhoda, Nora Jane, and (my favorites) Traceleen and Crystal, while introducing some new ones. It also includes two companion pieces to The Annunciation (Ellen's first novel). The collection is rich with humor and description. It's an essential read for Gilchrist devotees, but if you're just starting out, go for Age of Miracles.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Maybe a bit depressing,

But that's how short stories go these days. A bit dark, not fun or entertainment reading. Staccato sentences underscore the disjointedness of some of the characters. Great writing, great stories, great execution!
