David That was a great review. I am very curious about these tales. I really enjoy short stories so will add to my list. Thanks Jim

Thanks David. I don't read short stories too often (although I have another review coming shortly by an Italian author.) I had Pacific on my TBR pile for a couple of years. I had read good things about it but didn't realize it was shorts when I picked it up.
Glad I did.

David That happens to me when a book sits on the shelf for awhile and then it shines as you read it

I thought they were very good stories Bill - the only thing I have read by him

T.G. Hardy If you haven't read Memoir From Antproof Case, you might consider it. It is set in Brazil and paints Niterói, post-war, convincingly (I was a boy in Rio at the time). TG Hardy
