Status Updates From Drill Bit

[the delicate problem of a drill bit to the head] 🖤

Various demolition methods were proposed by engineers and reviewed by the doctors. Eventually, they concluded there was only one possible way to free Sharyad from the drill bit - but it came with a high risk.

A fifty-fifty chance: either Sharyad would survive with a piece of wall permanently attached to his ear, or his head would be severed from his body.

So far so fascinating, with a distinctive Eugène Ionesco flair permeating the entire work. That is to say, Theater of the Absurd, which I’ve acted in when I was part of a theatrical troupe. In fact, the novella or short story reads like a brilliant play 🙌🏼 🙌🏼

After purchasing 7 drill sets and 137 bits (some I needed anyway) I picked up a copy of this book on Hulu. Excited to read it. Mahtab is definitely deep, articulate and has a great sense of humor. She’s also a bit of a rocket 🚀 and here we go!
