Un receuil de nouvelles sympathique mais pas transcendant. Certaines nouvelles m'ont agréablement surprise, d'autres m'ont rendu perplexe et d'autres sont tombées complètement dans l'oublie car absolument pas marquantes. Le fait que chaques nouvelles soit dans des registres parfois totalement différents était cela dit très appréciable et rafraîchissant.
