I want an entire book from Rose's PoV or, failing that, more short stories. I loved that! I just love how completely into science Rose is. I loved that as well and how she takes care to mention she's punching and not slapping (idk, it struck me as super relevant at the time). (Because this takes place during The Shirt on His Back, because Rose is pregnant. How did I miss that?)Oh! By the way, Rose is 28 in this short story:
She was, Rose guessed, her own age - twenty-eight
Ben's vindictive streak is a thing of beauty, as is this exchange:
Hannibal paused, his hand on the rungs of the ladder. "For such a thoroughly nice man, Ben, you can be a complete son of a bitch." "Thank you," January said. "I have my moments."
Before I forget to ask again: in Good Man Friday, when Ben first finds the corpsedigger's "office" he says "Familiar with the ooze of fluids from the bodies of the dead, January understood what had been cut away." and I have no idea what he's talking about. Do you?
