While there were some outstanding stories, most of the collection blurrs together in my head. They all have the same sad and somber mood which is fine for a few stories. The content is not always explicitly sad and varies a lot from story to story, so it's not like it ever got boring, some stories just resonated less with me. If gloomy and dreamlike fantasy and magical realism is your thing, this is a good collection. I think Kij Johnson, for me, would be an author where reading one story at a time in an anthology might be really effective but a whole collection is a bit much.
