The stories are based on new articles/clippings. It was okay but since it kept being super short stories, you never really knew what was going on, who was what etc.
Interesting, different. Not my favorite of Emma Donoghue's.
A collection of powerful, memorable short stories; all based in fact, and Donoghue cites her sources. Her characters have all gone astray in some fashion, crossing the borders of race, law, sex, or sanity. If you have read Donoghue's 'Slammerkin', you know her talent for historical fiction is stunning. Each of these remarkable stories gave me pause for thought because they COULD have happened just this way.
