dolorsitamet's review against another edition
3.0
I mean, it was fine β I'm surprised that (at least on this site) it seems so unilaterally disliked (one of the lowest ratings I've seen out of the things I've read?)
I mean, it wasn't all that deep, and was somewhat predictable, but so are many books, right?
As predictable as any classic tale of tragedy. And it wasn't /badly/ told, and had some bits of society commentary β other people found these to be the good bits; I found them just okay, possibly even detracting from the overall atmosphere/feel of the text.
At any rate, I thought it was a fine short story, even if not that memorable.

βAnd we see in it, I think, an admirable instance of the unexpected forms in which the great Nemesis hides herself.β
