They really did Jean Rhys dirty with this one. What a weird collection of tales. The first two fit together in theme and style, and then the last two are supernatural? None of them are bad, I actually rather liked them all, especially the first two, but something about these four stories together just feels off and is a very bad introduction to her as an author, which is the opposite of what these books are supposed to do.
I have never read any of her shorter fiction before this, but even so I can tell you she deserves better than this mediocre presentation. A damn shame.
