In Three Days in June, the plot is quiet to the point of near stupor

Her latest unsettling collection of stories loosely connected by the theme of hunger contains graphic descriptions of violence and cannibalism

She manages to pack in more drama and nuance into 160 pages than other authors manage in novels twice that length

It seems predictable that criticism of Green Dot will focus on whether its heroine’s behavior is alienating or anti-feminist

I could happily live without ever reading another description by a male author of a woman whose attractiveness seems directly in proportion to her instability
