Review: A Short Summary of a Life
Rating: 2 out of 5
Date: 12 15, 2013
Not a novel or a story, this short piece would be best called a summary of the facts of a life. There is no suspense, dialogue or immediacy to the summary. The facts are plopped down like playing cards; we know who wins the game. But we don't care. We are not given enough specifics to really care whether she lives or dies. Yet we suspect she got a bad deal,was seriously mentally ill. She should not have been executed.
