Valente has a penchant for quirky writing, but even so, this story ranks among her more extreme ones. And I mean it in a good way. This short, but endearing and funny novelette, highlights the author’s skill with words and settings, as well as her perfect timing at delivering gut punches, only to soften them with gentle humor. Difference may not be for everyone, as it is wide open for interpretation, but if absorbed in one sitting, it will provide high entertainment value.
