The narrator of this cryptic tale is a mass murderer mainly interested in targeting females. The story begins with a description of the act of murder from the narrators point of view, and then goes one to recount the murderer's past and consequential source of his obsession—from his childhood spent in an economically depressed mid-1900s Bronx neighborhood to his days spent learning how to operate a variety of powerful weapons with ease in the U.S. military. The reader is treated to Phillips' familiar poetic prose and stream of consciousness narrative in this haunting tale of violent alienation in modern-day America.

What I don't like is relying purely on style, atmosphere and setting. The details are good--poetic even--but most of these stories are just vignettes. It's useful to consider that approach as a writer, when revising or expanding scenes, for example. But when I have to re-read a section five times just to figure out what the hell is going on--I get frustrated.

This short story portrays the life of a mother and daughter—the daughter, Kate, a young graduate student struggling to pay rent and find love, and a middle-aged widowed mother in an empty house. The mother develops a brain tumor the doctors believe to be malignant. However, Kate's brother Robert doesn't wish to tell their mother. Meanwhile, Kate develops symptoms similar to her mother's: headaches, delusions, and confusion. The two struggle together against the brutality and loneliness of life as they care for one another symbiotically. Kate realizes her duty and privilege in caring for her mother as she falls ill, for Kate's mother cared for her in her times of need. The story concludes when the two ride a Ferris wheel together, and Kate's mother assures her that the storm is “going to pass over” (198), [2] symbolizing an attempt at optimism and strength through the circumstances they must face together. Now playing for 29 years, it is firmly established as London's longest-running ghost story and the second longest running play in the West End.

The father is divorced from her mother, and it is obvious that this still affects him. The daughter remains by his side and helps with simple duties such as reading him his cards or helping him shave, but they do not share one word. This amplifies the negative emotions the father is feeling about the divorce, how he is still troubled with it, and how it hurts the relationship he has with his daughter.
