took a break from this novel- not purposefully- only to return to a banger of a story, quite honestly might be my favorite so far. Gates of Eden, the title story, is such an intriguing character study, one that i could totally visualize as a sort of period piece. super impressed by Ethan Coen’s style of prose. his dialogue and world building are superb. sad, but looking forward to finishing this one very soon

solid last story! getting back on a strong narrative, i like it

couldn’t get through I Killed Phil Shapiro for the life of me. definitely not one of my favorites so far

haven’t picked these stories up in a while, and this last Johnnie one was great. i love the screenplay, stage play style dialogue. was totally envisioning this playing out live or in a film

worst short so far, took me weeks to get through it lol. hope that changes

nope i lied. Fever in the Blood is the best one.

it just keeps getting better. the Morty one is the best one yet

Ethan Coen is simply so visual and descriptive, and his characters man. good stuff

perfect character study, if this is the tone for the rest of the shorts then it’s gonna be great
