Stone Mattress; 9 Wicked Tales

Super collection. Thoughtful and always go places you would not expect. Slow-burning (cf the briefer Gaiman) which I think relatively unusual for short story.

Realize 'review' of Atwood short stories rather cursory but felt it didn't lend itself to a lengthy commentary. As short stories best, to indicate if actually worth reading...which it most certainly is...and then make own decision as easy due to nature of format.
