This is a collection of short stories, most of which take place in the 1700's or 1800's. Donoghue is a master of telling each story in a different voice and style to suite both the time period and personalities of the characters. Each story is a like a pleasant gift and fun to read. The only issue is that each short story is, well, short. It's sometimes hard to become engaged in the story and then have it end. But that's more of a compliment to the author than a criticism. I very much enjoyed this book and give it a rating of A. Highly recommended!
