Status Updates From How the World Became Quiet

Only reading one story from anthology - "The Lady Who Plucked Red Flowers beneath the Queen's Window" (Hugo winner, novella, 2010).

Currently reading the short story "A Monkey Will Never Be Rid of Its Black Hands." Reading before going to work and cannot wait to get back to it at lunch. "Papa and Uncle Fomba told me if I didn’t join the army, they’d kill me. They didn’t. They cut off my hands." This act started a series of copy cat attacks on people that did not want to fight in the war.
