Day 7: The Provincials

by Daniel Alarcon in The Best American Short Stories 2013

This is another rather long short stories.  It is hard to rate a story that is 4 pages long against a story that is 40 pages long.  I think in general I have enjoyed the longer stories simply because they are much more like a novel and this is what I normally read.

This had a couple very interesting characters in a setting that I found very interesting.  I have not read much about how Mexicans react to people who return to Mexico after leaving for the US.

Rating 7/10
