The collected stories is a great book. It's interesting to see her development as a short story writer in them, where her interests change and how she constructs stories changes with the interests. I see lots of differences between her Japan stories, her American stories, the revised fairy tales, and then the stories that take place in nowhere but Carter-land.
I have not been reading lots of good books lately, so it's been fun to read about what you've been reading. Can't wait to have my reading freedom back (at least a little) after this degree is finished. :)
