    Pretty straightforward, but it doesn't have a strong feeling in the setting as the author says - and that seriously impacts the piece and its realism. The flow and sentences have some issues, but the characterization is good. Overall not a bad piece, though it doesn't leave a strong impression on the reader. I did like it, but such violence is glossed over in search of a new container. If anything, the numbness vs apathy is probably why.
