Stunning short story collection that I'm thinking about over a month after I started. I'm looking forward to more writing from this talented author who is great at capturing different characters and making them breath.

One star for the audiobook version, which I got through Libby/Overdrive from my local library. Each story is read by a different person, starting off with a bang by the great Levar Burton. The title story at the end felt a little dry for some reason, perhaps because the narrator never seemed to change tone all that much (it's a thought-provoking and sad premise worth reading).
