Sometimes you have to accept that finding an author you have never heard of might be an indication that they are not what you are looking for. A few of these stories are interesting enough to keep me reading; the rest are Mrs Dalloway on steroids.

The title story, the first, gave me Mrs Dalloway dread. “Inner life” is the theme of the first three, so I am bracing myself.
