The Assault

The non-linear timeline really deepened the emotional impact for me. I wonder what inspired the choice to tell the story this way—was it to mirror how memory works?

The story feels rich with questions about guilt, responsibility, and the nature of evil. Did the author intend to comment on universal moral dilemmas?
