Whether the setting for these stories is in Korea, Argentina, Slovenia, India, Japan or England, whether the characters are young or old, poor or rich, educated or uneducated, happy or unhappy, King is a writer whose eye and ear are always alert and whose hand at the shutter never falters.

The wit is subtle and delicate. The moments of violence and tragedy are all the more devastating for being expressed in a style which is an extraordinary combination of unobtrusiveness and force.
