What Reed has done so well in the stories collected here is to draw out that contradictory truth, leading us into a maze at once comforting and disorienting, letting us see how people, in the end, are on their own, blessed and cursed with the power to imprison or free themselves—and yet, and yet, how can you free yourself within a society that imprisons you? How can you free yourself from the prison you call home? It's a forever war if there ever was one, and Kit Reed is one of the better war correspondents we've got. In the end, there is no readily identifiable Kit Reed story; these stories are united simply by being superbly realised, vividly written, and decidedly unsettling. Whatever else they are, these are not comforting stories, but they do constitute one of the most compelling collections you are likely to read this year. BeinhaltetAuszeichnungen

During my numerous movings across country, I lost the book. I couldn't remember the title of the book or the author. All I could remember was that it had the robotic tiger in the plot and it was really sad.
But one time when I was googling it (again), it came up! I checked Kit Reed on Goodreads, and to my surprise she was registered there. I posted to her page how much her story means to me, and guess what? She replied to me! I couldn't be happier.
So I tried her new collection of stories, and I was fascinated.
These stories are not your bed time stories! Not the kind you could read and go to sleep without remembering about what you read. They stick with you. When you will be commuting to work, you will remember it. When you do your yoga, the images will come to your mind. Just so you know, I warn you.
