This was a very experimental short, trying to convey a simple story in a rather unique manner. Although the gesture is definitely recommendable, when you really get down to it there isn't much substance in it; rather, the message it tried to convey.
This is my first experience with this author, and I quite liked her prose and style. She kept me guessing for the first half of the story regarding the direction she was aiming for, which is really a plus point in hindsight.
I would have liked it if there were a bit more stuff revealed regarding the nature of the species/race that was conveying their story, and if the story wasn't such barebones.
Kudos for style though, 3 out of 5 stars from me.
