4.0 out of 5 stars Simple and stunning, 2 Aug 2004
I adored this book. All the stories were little treasures. I was continually floored by how well the author wove the stories. Highly recommmended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow., 24 April 2004
This review is from: How to Breathe Underwater: Stories (Hardcover)
Among the best short stories that I have ever read.
Captivating fromthe first line, they will have you hanging onto every word.
If you'regoing to buy a short story collection, get this one. If you're not goingto buy a short story collection, get this one anyway.
