A Curtain of Green, by Eudora Welty

Finally finished it -- in fact, I skipped the other story collection in the book; even for the first collection, I skip the last story. Could not endure it anymore.

The book starts with interesting stories, but quickly, it becomes an accumulation of words. The author just enjoying producing words, words, nothing substantial behind. This might be because of her limited life experience.

Modern Library hardcover, 1992. ISBN 067960027. The book contains two collections of Welty's stories: "A Curtain of Green" and "The Wide Net".
