WORTH CONSUMING!
Restrained, good, genuine stories about moral and social isolation in small town, turn-of-the-century America, and the lengths people were driven to to combat it. Kind of desolate and depressing, but the humanity and tension of the solitary battles portrayed is very worthwhile. Reminds me of Hemingway’s short work, only with much more emotional intelligence, or maybe Carson McCullers’ portraits of people fighting similar circumstances in the South.
