Just a superb superb short story writer. "Between the Shadow and the Soul" also made me weep. "To Sunland" had so many sad moments. "Brawler" was short, distinct. "Birdie" choked me up because four friends who lost touch twenty years ago reuniting contained a lot that spoke to me. And the novella-length "What's the Time, Mr. Wolf?" nearly lost me but I should never question Groff. She brought me right back in.

I had half an hour after my kid got on the bus before I started work so decided to read the first story in this and didn't know I was going to absolutely sob within 18 pages of a story?? Groff is truly one of the best writers today. "The Wind" proves it succinctly.
