Talk:The Cuckoo Conundrum/@comment-24821182-20140602123720

A brilliant story, well-written and cleverly thought out.

I especially like that the narrator has yet to make a decision, and is aware of the possibility that he might be insane. It's so much better than the stories where an oblivious looney does something extreme in the spur of the moment and then spends the rest of his life either in regret, denial, or convincing himself that the world is against him.

The narrator's mental degradation happens not over night, like a bunch of other stories, but through months of loneliness and insomnia, and I like that a lot as well.
