Property: A Collection

This is a collection of stories with a common theme - property  - by a very accomplished author. Whether the property concerned is a home or an item, each story provides plenty of food for though, a touch of humour and draws empathy from the most unsuspecting of readers. This is a series of fresh and stimulating tales; all written to a high standard and most of them could be experienced by any of us. I found myself quite enthralled and quite fascinated by the diversity of this anthology. Whilst I haven't come across this author previously, I wouldn't shy away from reading her work again. Lionel Shriver is very observant and the result is a memorable read, which I'm happy to give 4*.
