- Annotation
- Explores ways of reading the story as the opening of In Our Time, providing a brief critical overview, along with an examination of manuscript versions. Speculates on the nature of Liz s sexual encounter with Jim and traces the interconnected themes of sex, birth, death, violence, and maternity running throughout In Our Time. Concludes that the most pleasurable and powerful reading experience comes from following threads of meaning without moving too quickly toward closure.
