I got this softcover at Toadstool Books in its new Nashua location. It's an anthology of offbeat and unusual stories, or anecdotes, or fables... There's "Sabbatical", narrated in the first person by someone who's showing another person around the property they've rented, with running commentary about neighbors, weather, the past, and more; it goes in an oddly unsettling direction, but evokes the scene very clearly. There are short-short entries, such as "Girls I No Longer Know" - basically a list of girls who left the author's life one way or another, including "the girl in my mother who disappeared over time". Some are quite disturbing, some baffling, some poignant.

I left this book in the Little Free Library on this beautiful day; hope someone enjoys it!
