Good Day Yukio,
Yup, I read the short story - Dew Breakers in the anthology with the same title. It was a fascinating mix of history and culture -- did you have a question -- Did you like the other stories - especially the one about the father and daughter in Florida - the title escapes me

Hmmm....I don't wanna give anything away. It is an excellent dark piece of fiction...I liked all of the stories...
It is amazing how she weaved the stories together and how she highlights both the strengh and vitality and the wickedness and valuelessnes of humanity.
A Dew Breaker, by the way, is a torturer. I don't wanna ruin anything, but you should read the entire book when you get a chance.
