The Scent of Cinnamon (again)

Another small but perfectly-formed review of The Scent of Cinnamon, this time from the Oakland Tribune. You can read it here. It's wonderful, as usual, to be mentioned in the same paragraph as Alice Munro, but I'm particularly pleased that the reviewer also noticed Adam Haslett's story, one of my own favourites from the O. Henry Prize Stories 2007.

Wow, they called you "talented". I hope it's just one of many positive reviews for you in the coming year.

Thanks a lot! I hope so too.

The great thing about 'talented' is that it usually goes with other words like 'young'!
