The thirteen narrators are all American women challenged by their relationships with men but there the similarity ends. Some are brave, some are fearful, some are passive, some are active. The stories are interesting and there is a barbed wit informing the writing; the blurb emphasises the author's one-liners but for me the high point was a single paragraph in which a man finding a parking ticket goes through the five stages of grief in one speech. ( ) I first read this book as a requirement for a writing class, and I fell in love with "The Husbands." The character is wicked and endearing, and the story is funny and heartbreaking. The interspersed quotes from Mae West announce that the author is not a wallflower and is unafraid of breaking from convention. Her characters are sweet and naïve. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
As the title might imply, each of the 13 stories in this collection is underscored by the brassy spirit of Mae West. Come Up and See Me Sometime is a thought-provoking rant, surprising readers with mirror images of the fears, foibles, and facades of their own lives.
