Narrator Suehyla El Attar expertly voices nearly a dozen characters, all named Sarah, in this collection of inventive, funny, and disturbing stories about women navigating love, restlessness, self-doubt, and desire. Though each character is unique, they share a range of qualities: Many are queer, many are Jewish, and most are young women adrift in their careers and relationships. El Attar uses a slightly different voice for each. Her tone evokes dreaminess in a story about a lesbian couple who decide to become trees and bristles with prickly resentment in a story about a queer couple in the midst of conflict. Her subtle but striking vocal shifts add to the dizzying power of these stories, in which the characters' lives sometimes blur into one another.
