I love reading short story collections, but this one was a bit of a letdown. What saved this collection for me was the writing style. The author has a beautiful way with words, but the content/variety of the stories left me wanting more. I would read from this author again but overall; I was disappointed in some of the stories. It's a mixed bag for me.

Short stories set in Kashmir about everyday people - shopkeepers, young boys, families. Filled with humor, violence, and grief.

A beautifully written collection of short stories, but somehow I didn't really relate to most of them. Not my cup of tea but your mileage may vary!

This book was a collection of short stories. They were written poetically and were written beautifully. I do think some stories were good and others bad and some even amazing. It was a great collection and I enjoyed reading it, I think some should have flowed together more

Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for this complimentary ARC in exchange for an honest review!!
