Review: What Cruelty, Life.
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 05 1, 2012
This is a heartbreaking short story that describes the torment parents suffer in the aftermath of a child's disappearance.Rebecca, Daniel, and their remaining daughter, Bethany live in an atmosphere akin to suspended animation. They mourn the loss of Millie and yet hopefully and perhaps foolishly await her return.Rosen Trevithick has done an admirable job of making the character of Rebecca both tragic and despicable. She is unable to go on with her life; unable to forgive herself; and unable to truly love Bethany and give her the life she needs and deserves.
