Ouch, I almost wrote "Neighbours"..
It's a sad setting. Sarah is a fine old woman, and I felt depressed reading about her world fading away. I gave the story a second title in my head: Loss. She lost her friend, her security..
Maybe I am just associating it with my own sad memories, but I think it is worth reading.
I haven't read the other short stories from that anthology, I don't know yet if I'd suggest to get the book.
