Tortured skins, and other fictions di Maurice Kenny
I have no idea why the other readers of this collection would have given it five stars, some narratives are contestable and I really wanted to like this book but Kenny overwrites every single story. The only one with any measure of restraint is the documentary fiction piece at the start "Black Kettle: Fear and Recourse" which is still overwrought and confusing despite the simple language.
