En büyük şikayetimin saç ve makyajın aşırı yazılmış açıklamaları olduğu ilk kitaptan daha iyi. Bu çok az ve fantastik bir son için bir çatlak var. Birkaç küçük şikayet: (bazıları) kağıt ince karakterler, bazıları daha (ilk kitap Deus Ex Machina anlarına göre ve gitmeden önce biraz fazla arka hikaye.

The stories from this collection for which O'Connor is famous (the title story and "The Life You Save May Be Your Own") I found to be absolute failures--wet firecrackers of narrative. "The River" is halfway decent but could have been good, but the last two stories are absolutely masterful. O'Connor sort of ruins "Good Country People" at the end, but "The Displaced Person" is simply too good for her to spoil. I wonder if the stories are arranged in the order they were written; there is a sense of maturation over the course of the book, of growing confidence in her ability as a writer and to take the kind of risks which make her stories truly meaningful, and not just things you can hand to an AP English class for a Symbolism-Scavenger-Hunt.

One of my favorites of all time. Loved, loved, loved the adventures of Huck Finn! I could not put it down - suspense, laughter, and friendship all rolled into one and written in a style that will challenge you. I would recommend this book to ANYONE!!!!!!
