Public Library and other stories

Another week, another assignment
This one was to write a review for a collection of short stories by any writer of fiction. For another module, we’d had to read Ali Smith’s How To Be Both, which was shortlisted for the 2014 Booker Prize. I went along to the bookshop to buy it and, sitting next to it was the same author’s latest collection (her 5th) of short stories, Public Library and other stories. It won the Baileys Women’s Prize for Fiction in 2015
Bingo!
Here’s the review
As always, constructive criticism is welcome!
