review 1: Wow! So I've gone back and re-read this a few times now to see all of the different elements in the story. The style is magical realism that exemplifies the greed of us, as humans...but does so in a magical way, by use of a disheveled angel and a girl turned into a giant spider by her parents. I don't want to give too much away. This is great short story with a lot of depth, insight, and an interesting dose of reality. I highly recommend this to insightful readers.
review 2: WOW, this very short story is about an unfortunate couple whos first born baby is extremely sick. Down on there luck, they can't tell how it might get any worst until their cries are called in a way. A supposed angel falls from the sky and lands in a chicken hen. This isn't any normal ... moreangel though becuase he's old and all ugly looking. Any how, these couples take advantage of this angel and treats it like crap. This makes you question the couples faith because they're suppose to be religious and an angel is something to be crapping your pants about. Any way, the couple decides to make a profit off the angel and charges people to see it. With all this, they eventually make a mansion and their child eventually gets better with time. In the end, the angel flys away though and the baby gets better. less
