Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. ![]() ![]() A Carver for a post-normative world To say that I loved this book is an understatement. I couldn’t cram it into my greedy eyeholes fast enough; yet, at the same time I didn’t want it to end. Rosson’s three novels have all had a background of the supernatural, which is here—especially the opener featuring the (Lesser) Horsemen of the Apocalypse. What shines here, however, is his ability to convey true, brutal humanity. Damn. Mostly sad stories about people trying to cope with their lives. But it is not all agony: sometimes people succeed, or, if not, they get a glimmer of hope. Sometimes the stories are distopian sf, like "Yes, we are duly concerned with calamitous events". I loved that story. So completely out of order, so completely over the top. I started reading the story when I was at the office and I was so glad I was alone. I liked reading the stories. I had to look up a lot of words, as English is not my mother tongue. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Honorable Mentions:
The Lesser Horsemen - This tales of the other 3 horseman is one I didn't know I needed about the fab 4. We all know that death his here to stay, but what happens with the other 3 are no longer working out? This hilarious take on how God rehabilitates them was fitting for the pandemic we're currently living in. Guess pestilence received a bit of contract work.
Winter, Spring, Whatever Happens After That - This one got me right in the feels. The way Becky feels about school, work, and her alcoholic father, so heartbreaking. The description in this was does so much for the emotional state of the characters, and the lives they lead.
Plus Brad Benske and the Hand of Light, and Dunsmuir - sooo many feels in such a short amount of words.
You'll love this collection of stories if you enjoy works of fiction that don't have an explicit plot, and are more character driven. If you like reading about topics that toe the line of magic and realism, and are tied together with deep emotions pick up this book! (
