Jesus. Good story,
@Ares96! “Oder” and “red dress” had me wondering, but that ending...
wham!
Rereading it, I really enjoyed the significance of the book titles. I’m curious as to how the lesson of “sometimes the right choice is still terrible, but that doesn’t mean you don’t have to make it” will impact the narrator’s point of view on his government’s...more heinous practices now that he’s had this experience.
