Buku ini adalah kumpulan cerpen hasil kolaborasi dua penulis bersaudara yang sudah nggak diragukan lagi : Helvy Tiana Rosa dan Asma Nadia. Permasalahan yang diangkat luas banget, mulai dari keluhan anak terhadap ibunya yang overprotektif sampai jihad dan feminisme. Sesuai janji, emosi yang disajikan dalam cerita-cerita ini juga luas banget. Baik Helvy Tiana Rosa maupun Asma Nadia nggak kaku mengangkat tema-tema yang ringan maupun berat. Namun, kalau disandingkan seperti ini, jadi kelihatan ciri khas serta kekuatan keduanya. Cerita-cerita Helvy Tiana Rosa lebih 'serius' dan melodramatis, dengan pesan moral yang tak perlu sembunyi-sembunyi, misalnya pada cerita 'Titian Pelangi'. Terus dalam cerita-cerita Helvy Tiana Rosa, ada beberapa kesamaan yang kentara. Kalau ada yang sakit, pasti sakit lever. Terus, tokoh mahasiswa kuliahnya pada di Fakultas Sastra UI. Apakah itu suatu kelemahan? Nggak juga sih ya...Tapi setiap saya menemukannya, perasaan saya kayak memergoki blooper di film-film. Sementara itu, karya Asma Nadia lebih ringan, dan ada yang saya harap dikembangkan jadi novel saja, karena...menarik tapi kependekan, hehe. Misalnya cerita 'Catatan Seorang Feminis'.

Cerita favorit adalah 'Mang Agil' karya Asma Nadia. Bercerita tentang ketenangan suatu sore di kosan muslimah yang terganggu oleh kehadiran seorang pengidap sakit jiwa. Humoris, tapi thriller...gimana ya menjelaskannya? Yang jelas, seru!
