Brilliant writing - Rated
Kureishi's collection of short stories perfectly captures a confused sense of identity and longing. Excellent
Just brilliant. A book of emotions. - Rated
I first read A Hanif Kureishi's novel at university. And I just loved it. I thought the way those book were written suggested a whole universe I could almost touch. There is no way I can describe it better. The words fly like feathers. And things are described without even being said. It is amazing how Hanif Kureishi manages to create a tunnel of emotions in just few lines. All the stories deserve an award for the truth they carry with them.
Intelligent, entertaining but unevern story collection. - Rated
I was excited and refreshed to read the first(title)story in this collection. It was smart, hip, insightful and moved at a rate that was fun after slogging through a lot of modern "literary" fiction. Unfortunately the later stories in the collection were darker, slower and in the case of "Flies"-too self-consciously symbolic("The Turd" seemed too outrageous to take the symbolism seriously). As a guy in late middle age who has long since left drugged-out, lost friends it was refreshing to relive the hilarity, pain and eventual insanity of that wonderfully self-centered life-without-limits.
Short Stories...Provacative, Bizarre and Humorous - Rated
Hanif Kureishi is a wonderful writer with the unique ability to touch on often serious topics as race, class and religion with unabashed humor. Love in a Blue Time is no exception. His social commentaries are expressed through well-developed characters, ranging from the highly ordinary to the very peculiar. "We are not Jews", "My Son the Fanatic" and "The Tale of the Turd" are arguably the the best short stories in this series and must-reads for fans of this gifted writer.
