Beautifully written and disturbing. In the aftermath of war, people will need to be held accountable. Nicely woven between one woman's personal history and the history of a society.
"Belief that one is somehow special, more equal than others. It’s people with no empathy, no understanding that human beings are sentient creatures, not things. I see these people every day exploiting workers, bullying lovers, nattering on about refugees squatting on their land. It’s an easy step to the right, once you cease to acknowledge the humanity of others, to become a monster. That’s all it is. A half step.”
