Buy It.

You have the money, you have the time to read (although you probably don't take advantage of that time) so why not buy this book.Mark Strand's Mr and Mrs Baby is one of the best collections of contemporary fiction of our time. Stories like "A Dog's Life" and "True Loves" will challenge the standard conventions which we cling to in our daily life.Cutting wit, piercing irony and beautiful writing characterize this masterpiece.
