I had a lot of fun reading these stories. The titular story comes first and was a romp of a farce but it also said a lot about that peculiar experience of visiting a foreign country, and finding yourself surrounded by foreign people who act strangely, except they're not strange at all, that's you, you're the foreigner. Other stories are more surreal and disturbing. I took my time reading these and enjoyed the collection very much that way, as something that I could dip into when I didn't know what to read next, and know that I would always be surprised. ( )

A set of well-written, linked, short stories. Tender in a most unexpected way, with a mean surrealistic streak... ( )

Superb satirical short stories. Some set in Europe, others in Morocco. Happy to be a supporter of the publisher Deep Vellum. from my personal library. ( )
