There Once Lived a Woman Who Tried to Kill Her Neighbor's Baby: Scary Fairy Tales by Ludmilla Petrushevskaya

Did not finish book.
I read about half of these stories before returning the book to the library. Some were delicious, terse and harrowing. Others had me a bit lost, which could be due to translation, cultural differences or my inattentiveness.

Worth checking out, but I wish I had felt enraptured by all the stories. It was a bit hit or miss.
