I think that this novel is one that I should like more than I do. I liked the language in it and the different characters were nice. I liked how all of these people, whether they were willing to admit it or not, were tied together based on the place in which they lived. However, I have never been one for short stories, primarily because they kept switching characters, with no consistent flow of narrative. Still, I think that this book did a good job helping me care for these various peoples and their plights. The very last story, at the very end was a little confusing to me in terms of what and why it happened, but I think that is just me. For those reasons I give it a three out of five.
