Reviewer: Timothy Ferguson - - December 9, 2011
Subject: I really enjoyed this

I foudn the structure of the stories, really interesting. Each seems to have a biological or geophysical fact in it ("...and that's why we get grinding stones rom that particular mountain...")piece of wisdom in it. Many seem to have a reciprocal curse as their ending "You'll suffer X for ever! Really, well then you'll suffer Y until X stops!". Many have a layer of patriarchal violenece in them which I wonder if it was there in the original, or if they were added in by the white woman who is interpreting the stories for a European audience.

All in all, a very interesting book.
