Telling Tales
edited by Nadine Gordmeyer
After a long time trying to find something adequate to quench my literary thirst, Telling Tales answered my search. I loved this book so much I borrowed it out from the library twice (which, I assure you, I only do if I REALLY like the book). I didn't endeavour to read it simply because it features works from writers such as Susan Sontag, Woody Allen and Margaret Atwood, or because the proceeds go towards educational programs discussing HIV/AIDs.
No, it was a combination of the two, the fact that all these authors, from vastly different walks of life, could unite to raise awareness of the widespread and devastating problem that is HIV/AIDs. These are works of the highest calibre, and I know that I will once again have to renew this book from the library in order to read it a third time.
I give it 4.5 stars.
