wordybirdy<a href="https://bookstodon.com/tags/CurrentlyReading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CurrentlyReading</a> I'm halfway through The Collected Short Stories of Virginia Woolf, and not convinced that this format suits Woolf's writing style. She enjoys wild tangents of fancy that are wonderful in a long form novel, but here suffer from not being able to breathe, and the stories end too abruptly. Nevertheless, so far there are a couple of gems. What do others here think of her short stories?

Antonina_orthefallofrome📚 “People disappear all the time in Germany. We are almost as famous for that as we are for strudel.” 👍The audio was utterly gripping to me. I think WWII is a common setting in historical fiction but this book focusing on the Olympics and the lead up was refreshing. 👎The ending was kind of weird. I can’t say much without spoilers but it just kinda lingered 🤷‍♀️ . .

Martin was a short but fascinating read (gave it 4/5 on GR). I've now started on A Room Above a Shop which is the debut novel from Anthony Shapland. Another short read, it's the story of the relationship between two repressed small town Valleys men during the late 1980s. The writing so far is quite lovely.
