I was surprised at how many of these stories I have heard referenced to over the years, most notably Land of the Blind. There are some good observations or critiques of perspectives in the stories, though the style of re-telling them by the narrator and the intimate style of the original narrator made me uncomfortable at times, like I was hearing details I shouldn't, almost "tmi".
The final story, The Door in the Wall, reminds me of Erin Morgenstern's The Starless Sea...I wonder if she borrowed from this story for hers? ( )

I enjoyed this collection very much. His style of fictional reporting - telling one person's story from the perspective of another - is intriguing to me. My favorite of this set was The Door in the Wall. In the Country of the Blind is also wonderful. ( )
