Rating:  Summary: Wise and Wonderful Review: Without a doubt, Doris Betts is one of the world's wisest novelist. These stories, like so many telescopes, focus, fine tune, and zoom in on the perceptions and verities of the heart. Ms. Betts not only reminds us of how frail we are in our faults, but--too--how strong we are in our virutes. I have read all her work and find this collection to be--as all her other work is--a proud call to the humanity in all of us. No excuses, no apologies, just humanity. Shining, excellent stories, each of them!
