   Is afterparties a good book?

   • Afterparties isn't perfect. As with every story collection, there are a couple that probably could have been left out. And there's some graphic sex and a bit of scatological stuff, so if that bothers you, caveat emptor. The book has a bright, sometimes rambling style that appealed to me, but may not be for everyone.

   How many stories are in afterparties?

   • Four or five of the stories in “Afterparties” are good enough that the reader senses that he had a vast amount of soul and spirit in his account, and that he’d only just begun to draw from it. One of these stories is about a mother and her two young daughters, who run a 24-hour doughnut shop.

   Should afterparties be published posthumously?

   • To see a debut as promising as Afterparties being published posthumously is to see the outline of what might have been. This debut is tragically forced to double as a bequest, much like the necklace Serey passes down to Sammy—a gift that comes with its own ghosts, as well as the responsibility to remember those who are gone.

   Why should I read afterparties?

   • Veasna is such a strong writer and his stories are compelling, complex, and deep. Though at times the stories felt a bit too drawn out, the beauty of Afterparties is that all of the characters in the various stories are connected to one another, placing Easter eggs - and commentary on immigrant life - throughout the collection.
