*by E***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 3, 2017*

Some stories are stronger than others, as with all story collections, but on the whole this is an important and at times very beautiful book by a writer who deserves to be more widely read. As Gallant herself has said, "“Stories are not chapters of novels. They should not be read one after another, as if they were meant to follow along. Read one. Shut the book. Read something else. Come back later. Stories can wait.” The perfect bedside book to dip into in the evening.

    Stories Worth Savoring, Written Wonderfully
  

*by G***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2016*

Marcel Proust, I suspect, would have appreciated her style it being so involved with the characters response to their time, place, and each other. Regardless, I certainly did. I am only a short distance to the finish and I am savoring the experience not wanting it to end.There are few authors I would ever say that about, Proust was one, even after finishing the last volume, I still found myself restarting the first one before accepting the reality. I feel much the same way about Mavis Gallant's wonderful stories.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    The "creme de la creme" of authors. Sublimely intelligent, brilliant writing. "Real" characters.
  

*by S***P on Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2020*

She's the best writer I've ever read...and she lived in Paris for 60 years (more than I, in this life). I can read stories I've recently read thoroughly again and again. The writing is that stupendous.
