This is a tiny collection of short stories loosely based around the theme of “desire”, they are all completely unrelated and to my great surprise one is a reinterpretation of Kafka’s Metamorphosis. I really enjoyed them all, I think I prefer his short stories more than longer fiction. The dreamy quality is still there, but there isn’t time for them to get too “out there” like some of his books. Not a bad way to end the reading year at all 🤩
