Talk:Like Father, Like Son/@comment-25041416-20140620203539

It doesn't matter to me that the end is predictable. I can't imagine being someone who insists simplistically on a SHOCKING ENDING to everything. My issue is that the narrator manages to sleep through his wife burning to death beside him.

It's well written, good concept and I'm into the idea of the sins of the father coming back and all that rot and I'm not even a stickler for detail in a good story but I cannot suspend disbelief to allow a man to sleep a natural sleep in a bed next to someone who is being burned to death. Imagine the thrashing, the violence, the shouting, the stench....
