another very mixed bag here-- a couple were fine, one i thought was interesting but disliked in execution, and then 'to follow the waves,' which i really, really liked. please stop telling me what your story's moral is, el-mohtar, and just TELL ME YOUR STORY. this is always when you are at your best

highlight of this so far for me is very easily "and their lips rang with the sun," which runs closest to what i love about a good fairytale and also doesn't feel like someone's hitting me in the head with a mallet that reads "this is the moral of this story." "the lonely sea in the sky" had some rly fun & interesting concepts but i was somewhat less impressed w the the delivery. also for once i enjoyed a poem

liked the short story featured at the end of 'the river has roots' enough that i decided when this came out i would check it out so we shall see how this goes. undecided whether this first one is too heavy handed-- that is often the way of fairytales, after all?
