This review is from: The Sweet and Sour Tongue (Paperback)
A wild and wonderful collection. I love this book. The stories are somehow warm and wacky at the same time. The title story alone is worth the price. You'll be amazed. This is a great introduction to the work of Leslie What.

This review is from: The Sweet and Sour Tongue (Paperback)
Leslie What's short stories celebrate the richly funny aspects of the most awful day of your life. Her particular genius is to observe the nuances of human interaction, to feel intensely the way people hurt one another physically and emotionally, and to write about it in a way that reveals that comedy is intrinsic in tragedy. This is what humor is for: to transform the pain of living into an understanding of life's complexities. This is her first collection, but she has had many stories published in literary, fantasy, and science-fiction magazines. Let's have more Leslie What collections! And I want to see novels from this woman! |
