Pricksongs & Descants: Fictions | 
pickA collection of short stories, each one containing several stories. Coover's writing feels like the literary equivalent of cubism -- attempting to portray all sides of the story, all the different possibilities and outcomes. Many are retelling of fairy tales and even those that aren't are often dark, absurd, gruesome, and occasionally horrific. Often spellbinding, but also an overabundance of the male gaze. 3.5 🌟 #1001books, #reading1001
