اورسلا لگویین در پذیرش این کتاب برای جایزه جیمز تیپ تری جونیور متن زیر نوشت که به نظرم در توصیف کتاب کافیه :

“An ageless, sexless entity who can take any form is at first indifferent to gender; as it grows more human, the choice becomes more important to it; it ends up a woman by preference. If gender isn't the central concern of this novel, it's near the center, and the handling of it is skillful, subtle, and finely unpredictable.”

موقع خوندنش خیلی لذت بردم

“Ecosystem of Trauma”

“I was a thing in a swimming pool being observed by a monstrous little girl. I was a mouse in an empty lot being tracked by a fox. I was the prey the starfish had reached up and pulled down into the tidal pool ... There were thousands of “dead” spaces like the lot I had observed, thousands of transitional environments that no one saw, that had been rendered invisible because they were not “of use.” Anything could inhabit them for a time without anyone noticing “

A superb and mind bending collection.
this stories infect my imagination in profound way.
