Book Club - Short Stories

 


After finishing Shadow of the Wind, which is now an all time favorite - and before April, when I like to read Shakespeare - I decided to look for some female authors in this collection to end Women's History Month.

First I read Dorothy Parker's Big Blonde.  An interesting, sad story.

I'm now reading Willa Cather's Paul's Case.

This one is more intriguing.  Not that I knew what was going to happen with Hazel in Big Blonde, but Paul is a bit more haphazard and unpredictable.  I am more curious about the end.

Next up:

Bliss by Katherine Mansfield


(Book is a 4th printing from 1961)
