![]() ![]() Time and again, interesting ideas and characters just seem to fizzle. What a unique twist on the vampire myth! And then the story just kind of…ends. My experience seems to be similar to many on Goodreads which is that the stories have very interesting premises, I mean, the titular story Vampire in the Lemon Grove, is legitimately about vampires living in a lemon grove in Italy, struggling with the ennui of the undead, trying to use lemons to quench that unquenchable thirst, after discovering years into their vampire life that even drinking the blood does nothing at all. I have read some great collections but this one for me was a dud. Boyle and falling for the vocal recitations by LeVar Burton. I’ve gotten into short stories in the past few years, starting with T.C. ![]() That gives you immediate insight into the impression it made, which was weak.
