A month ago I hacked up a package to conveniently list books by authors I like, but have missed:
While testing it, I ended up buying about 20 books, and this is one of them. Hooray for technology!
Hempel is, of course, known for her very short stories, and this book has more than a handful of those. But half the 140 pages of this slim book are taken up by a single story, Cloudland, so that’s unusual.
It’s all very good. I particularly liked the one about the full service shelter. I liked Cloudland just fine, but I didn’t really find it convincing.
Sing to It (2019) by Amy Hempel (buy new, buy used, 3.64 on Goodreads)
