A little uneven, but with some real gems. Saroyan’s voice is distinctive. The intro from Stephen Fry added value. Worth checking out.
Hardik Gour –
A mixed bag. Some stories resonated, others felt disjointed. Saroyan captures the era well, but the characters didn’t always grab me. Worth a read for Fry’s intro alone.

Beautifully written and reflective of its time, but I found it quite depressing and struggled to connect with some stories.

Beautifully written, but a bit depressing. The struggles of the characters were hard to read at times. Still, a valuable glimpse into s America.

I was expecting more based on the description. Some stories were great, but others fell flat. Not a must-read, but not terrible either.

A fascinating collection of stories reflecting the era. Some were very short and I wish they were a bit longer and more fleshed out. Overall a good read
