This read like a fever dream. The way the opressive heat radiates off the page and Victors desperate attempt to make his mind stop spinning, it was amazing. It is short and I was hooked from the first sentence. It is also one of few times where the author utilized the first person narrative to it´s full effiency.
Graphic: Death, Suicide, and Violence
Moderate: Homophobia
