The Collected Stories of Lydia Davis |
Davis prefers to call these stories, rather than poems. With her understanding of our underlying senses and feelings, she addresses life from all angles - death, marriage, children, the home, anecdotes, thoughts, objects, authors. All feel close to life but with a twist to make you think, smile, grimace, each one mind blowing and thought provoking. She was new to me but I am hooked, though I had to stop for a while. Keep them on your bedside table and read a few each day.
