Completed the first collection. Not totally sold on Valenzuela, but I'm seeing the potential - for me to come around and/or for her to develop her powers. It may have been a mistake to pick this up directly after Faulkner. Censors is a total U-Turn then butt-kick into another universe.

I'll have to come back to this when I need to catch up on my reading challenge.

"The Best Shod" was wonderful and bizarre, "The Snow White Watchman" was okey-doke, and the title story completely lacked any nuance, which I get may be the point, but you can so clearly draw a line (and not a very long one) from point A to point B with so little effort. I was pretty psyched for this. I pray I'm not dealing with a poor-man's Kafka. It's still early...
