I loved the chapbook. The Klages story - one of three she has out this year - is just lovely. I also loved Geoff's stories. A fine book and well worth having.
ReplyDeleteIn case you missed it, the Summer (print) version of Rain Taxi had a positive and thoughtful joint review of Cheek by Jowl and Sylvia Kelso's book on Le Guin.
ReplyDeleteI just finished reading the Year's Best SF 14 anthology edited by Hartwell and Cramer, and was pleased to find rocking stories by Carolyn Ives Gilman, Vandana Singh, Ann Halam / Gwyneth Jones (plus lots of other good 'uns).
