It's important to remember that this is not a household buildings or contents insurance policy, or an equipment maintenance contract. This is her first collection. With early stories, there's a sense of adventurousness--but there can also be pretense and self-indulgence. Some of the stories are so oblique and almost intentionally confusing that I found myself wishing a given story would end. The technique is hit and miss. Phillips often writes about sex--the dirtier and sleazier the better. There are no cotillions or country clubs in these stories; they're all set in the worst parts of the worst towns. I like that. There were a handful of stories that I thought were particularly good--usually the ones involving mothers and daughters. The best evoked Bonnie Jo Campbell's most recent collection of short stories, but unfortunately, I found much of the rest overly written, obscure, repetitive, and dull. I love great flash prose, and I think some of the ones included here were occasionally great. But many just left me wondering, "So what?" Many of the better ones seemed to be gesturing towards something interesting, but then the pieces just ended abruptly. The narrator of this cryptic tale is a mass murderer mainly interested in targeting females. The story begins with a description of the act of murder from the narrators point of view, and then goes one to recount the murderer's past and consequential source of his obsession—from his childhood spent in an economically depressed mid-1900s Bronx neighborhood to his days spent learning how to operate a variety of powerful weapons with ease in the U.S. military. The reader is treated to Phillips' familiar poetic prose and stream of consciousness narrative in this haunting tale of violent alienation in modern-day America. The unmistakable work of early genius trying her range, a dazzling virtuoso range, that is distinctly her own. Jayne Anne Phillips is ‘the real thing.’”

An unarrangedoverdraft. This is when you spend more money than you have in your current account withoutalready having an arranged overdraft, or when you exceed your current arranged overdraft limit. A good way to compare the costs of borrowing products is by using the APR, which shows the cost of borrowing over a year. What I don't like is relying purely on style, atmosphere and setting. The details are good--poetic even--but most of these stories are just vignettes. It's useful to consider that approach as a writer, when revising or expanding scenes, for example. But when I have to re-read a section five times just to figure out what the hell is going on--I get frustrated.
