A slow start with a rapid fire conclusion. I enjoyed the slow build up of tension. I was curious to see just how far into the extreme things got.

People were infected with the concept that happiness was something outside themselves, and a new and powerful form of loneliness was born. Mix loneliness with stress and enervation, and all sorts of madness can occur.

It was the face of a human being who'd been constructed exclusively of wounds. Not time or history or ambition, nothing but wounds.
