The latest of the four short-story anthologies published in Taylor's lifetime, so it tends to be an example of Taylor at her best. "The Fly-Paper" is definitely among my favorite stories, PERIOD. This out-of-print Virago, though, is now superseded by the 2012 Virago publication of Taylor's Complete

Overall, I give it 4 stars - my favorites were Flesh, about two people at a seaside resort who decide to have a fling, and Sisters, about a widow who gets a visit from an author asking about her sister. I enjoyed my time with Elizabeth Taylor in this collection.
