If I had to choose a favorite author, I think this lady would have to be it. This was the second time I was reading this collection of short stories and I loved them. You can't miss her irony, her wit...and ofcourse her powers of observation. She doens't make a comment about her characters, only writes about them objectively, and leaves it to the reader to make their own opinions, which makes the stories so much better and more personal. Awesome, a great read.
