Oh, how I love the tersely brilliant short stories of Ludmilla Petrushevskaya!

Okay, what am I supposed to say that makes you want to read this book more than the title already makes you want to read this book? And why am I the only reviewer out there who thinks these stories are hilarious?

Highly recommending There Once Lived a Girl Who Seduced Her Sister's Husband, and He Hanged Himself: Love Stories and Ludmilla Petrushevskaya's previous collection, There Once Lived a Woman Who Tried to Kill Her Neighbor's Baby: Scary Fairy Tales.
