review 1: Excellent short story collection from an excellent writer I just recently stumbled upon. Absolutely original and striking architecture to many of the stories included; structured and revealing in very diverse and unique ways. From one story to another Matt Bell shows his ability to use a very full pallet to voice his visions, yet the book, as a whole, is quite fluid and focused. More than just well thought out stories you will later think about, this collection will reside much deeper than in your head.
review 2: Matt Bell has found a fan in me; his stories are original and exciting, touching and inspiring. In one story, about an isolated sociopath, Bell manages to maneuver the reader into empathy, making monstrosity beautiful and sad. In his novel retelling of... more the Red Riding Hood tale, he turns ancient weakness into modern empowerment. His writing is crisp and colorful, and his stories are bright--they massage emotions and they push boundaries; they shine and they haunt. I highly recommend this collection--I could hardly put it down once I picked it up. less
