Hi Everyone, One of my all-time favorite short story collections is Primo Levi’s THE PERIODIC TABLE. A trained chemist (and Auschwitz survivor), Levi embroiders his tales with the specialized knowledge of his trade. Sometimes the “element” is central to a story, more often it’s peripheral, but each and every tale is enriched sensorily and metaphorically by it.
