review 1: Not sure how to rate this one. It is an exceptionally written short story but I just didn't like it. I guess I'm not a fan of impossible situations and even worse decisions when it comes to characters and story line. I want something redeeming, even if it's not truthful. This one just wasn't for me. It left me feeling sad, which is probably the mark of a good short story but left me feeling depressed.
review 2: This was one of the first offerings I read from Elizabeth Bear. I thought it was beautifully written and the character of Desiree is made so complete within a short length of time that one feels fully invested in her plight. Sometimes it is difficult to accept help and sometimes we have to believe that we can win without it. This is one of those sto... moreries that I reread simply because of its haunting quality. less
