I was distracted by some of the grammar errors and the awkward dialogue, but overall, it was an entertaining short story.

I was gifted a copy of this short story by the author in exchange for an honest review. I made no guarantee of a favorable review.
This short story was a deeply, powerful and meaningful story of the human heart and the capacity of the love it holds told via the use of Norse mythology. It was well written and I certainly did not see what was coming. I love a story that makes me cry upon revealing its most intimate secret. This is truly a must read.

This is a short story that was published in the New Yorker. The tale is strange and intriguing and fits perfectly into Ishiguro’s style. I listened to this story on the New Yorker’s fiction podcast which I would highly recommend as the reader spends time discussing the story as well as giving a reading. I really enjoyed this story and would definitely recommend it.This is a short story that was published in the New Yorker. The tale is strange and intriguing and fits perfectly into Ishiguro’s style.

This was an extremely short story. On my Nook it was a total of 15 pages. Personally I think that it was captivating. I want to know what happened before, what happened later etc. I will say that I would definitely want more from this short story. I read it in less than 10 minutes and I am definitely disappointed that there was only 15 pages.

Fun, short read
This book is a short read, but is way too similar to Thinner and doesn't quite match that book's ingenuity and excitement. It is a good story, very good, but lacks the originality I've come yo expect from King.
