Apsakymams ir panašiems mažos apimties kūriniams visada buvau labai, gal net perdėtai, reiklus ir kritiškas, na bet kad tikrai šioje knygoje nėra nė vienos labai kabinančios istorijos. Praėjo trys savaitės, aš nelabai ką bepamenu.
Tiesa, galbūt vertinimas būtų kitoks, jei būčiau skaitęs paskutinę knygos istoriją, "Prieše mano". Bet kadangi mačiau filmą - beje, visai neblogą klasikinį 80-ųjų B-listo saifajų, kurį esu visai linkęs rekomenduoti, tai skaityti nesiėmiau, o įvertinimas - atitinkamas.

Yra tikrai gerų, bet kai kurie mažiau įsimintini.
