I'm not sure how to rate or review this collection. Some of these stories knocked my socks off. Others were just strange and a little boring. Dawkins has true talent, though. Because her characters are looking at reality through such a microscopic lens, the stories at times felt a bit like horror. Overall, this book was good & weird. My favorite stories were "Eminent Domain", "The Buffalo Farm", and "The Quiet Enemy".
