I read this story a few months ago and am just now getting
around to writing about it.
I have a new life now filled with responsibilities and
distractions – enough to keep me from reading and doing any serious thinking about
what I've read. Mindless fiction finds its way into the brief moments I have to
read and I’m afraid that I've also developed a shorter attention span which
kills any sort of extended periods of reading and writing.
This was a beautifully written story and I was pulled
through the pages.
I've been fortunate enough in my life, up to this point, to
be spared being exposed to situations such as Iris, the main character.
Perhaps this is one of those stories that offers a lesson to
the reader.
Of course, every day presents the possibility…of a
situation.
Will I remember my lessons?
