Although some of the description is vivid, I find it unconvincing in places because some of the stories are actually the recollections of humans who encounter individuals of the People, not the People (who have race memory recall) themselves, and I find it hard to picture how they can have word by word recall of what human beings felt, especially as those narratives start before they encounter one of the People.
*****************
Re-read
My review above stands. I would only add that in one of the later stories, the woman of the People narrating the story is an absolute brat, possibly the author's reaction to the general perception that the People are all absolute paragons of virtue in the majority of stories in this and its predecessor, 'Pilgrimage'. And even so, I didn't really buy the Jemmy character, met in several tales before, stranding a heavily pregnant woman in a flood.
The other point I would make is to add a trigger warning regarding infant mortality because that is a major plot point in two of the stories. As before, my rating is an OK 2 stars.… (mer)
