4.0 out of 5 stars
Same but different,
By BAW "BAW" (Charleston, WV United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Riddle of the Fly, & Other Stories (Short Story Index Reprint Series) (Hardcover)
Enright is known mostly for her children's books; this collection of short stories is very much for adults. Nevertheless, many of these stories remind one of certain aspects of the GONE AWAY LAKE books and the MELENDY FAMILY books. There are one or two that are, however, quite surprising to one who knows only her children's books.
I believe that she wrote some other short stories for adults that were published in various magazines and are not in this collection; I have never read any of them, but would be interested in seeing them. She never wrote an adult novel, for which I am sorry. In short, an adult who knew her from childhood will be pleased to see that there is more to her than her children's books; an adult who is introduced to her writing by these stories may want to explore her children's books. |
