“Strange and wonderful… a witty, oblique and mischievous storyteller, Arimah can compress a family history into a few pages and invent utopian parables, magical tales and nightmare scenarios while moving deftly between comic distancing and insightful psychological realism…her science fiction parables, with their ecological and feminist concerns, recall those of Margaret Atwood. But it would be wrong not to hail Arimah’s exhilarating originality: She is conducting adventures in narrative on her own terms, keeping her streak of light, that bright ember, burning fiercely, undimmed.” –New York Times Book Review

What It Means When a Man Falls from the Sky

This was a compilation of short stories that I didn't completely understand at first, so I kept reading and wondered what the fuck was going on and why the characters kept changing. I did, however, love all of the pieces in this book, which is unusual.
