It’s a short but really heavy read once you figure out what it is about. Interesting read.

I stumbled upon this book after reading some other short reads. Overall, it was a nice story. I enjoyed the pace and the writing style, as well as the way the story was constructed. Also, I appreciated the fact that the sympolism was easier to understand, at least I think I've got what the author was trying to convey in this short story.
