Nicely structured with some lovely parallels and good characterisation. I liked the way that every character was true to form even in the tiniest of details.
Also like your responses to the pitiable postings of other time wasters!
P.S.If you have the time or inclination I would appreciate your take on my first effort 'The Lift' but please don't think this review is designed as a suck up so that you'll write me a nice review in return!
Author's response
Thank you for your response. I really enjoy hearing positive things from readers, especially with specific details.
I'd be happy to read your fiction as well. I find the low level of interaction on this site to be discouraging, but I really should be doing some more reading and reviewing myself if I want it to get better.
