I thought three out of five were excellent, one good, one ("The Cows" I didn't get at all.

Some short stories are good this time of year.

Interesting take on the dividing line between history and fiction. Aside from what the book is ostensibly about -- the JFK assassination -- it's also very much concerned with what it is to be a historian and researcher, how much of oneself moves in and out of a fixed story. There are a lot of ways to read this, I think, which makes it really engaging. Also the book itself is very beautiful, with a lot of attention paid toward the design and feel, which enhances the feeling of it being an interactive kind of text. This is something I could definitely reread at some point and have an entirely different experience of.
