This is a beautiful collection of short stories from a large variety of excellent authors. It is impossible to give a synopsis because the stories vary and are quite brief, but the quality of writing is top tier.

I tend not to read a ton of short stories, but I think I need to add more to the rotation.

Many of these authors have novels as well and that helps me know who I want to read more from.

I recommend this collection to anyone who enjoys or is willing to try short stories.

Thank you to Net Galley, Knopf, Pantheon, Vintage, and Anchor for the ARC. All opinions are my own.
