Graham's writing is concise and often just plods through portions of the stories. When I say this, I actually mean plod as a positive, for that accurately describes how these characters survive day to day. The style sets the atmosphere ideally and the characters are, for lack of a better phrase, well-roundedly flat. They have chosen to live as flat and Graham rounds out that flatness so we can grasp their nuances.
This is what was once called a short story cycle (yeah, that dates me, I know) in that each story is complete yet together they tell a larger story. They are not simply linked but create a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.
