The story is a satirical look at a dystopian future in which time is strictly
|
||
|
|
regulated and everyone must do everything according to an extremely precise
|
||
|
|
time schedule.</p>

|
|
<p>For a short story, with the content coming out of order -- on purpose: the
|
||
|
|
author points "I'll first tell you the middle, then the start, and
|
||
|
|
the end. Here is the middle" and then "Here is how this begins" -- there are
|
||
|
|
some pretty good points here. For example, the fact that we run so much worried
|
||
|
|
about being late, and having a time for everything, that the government makes a
|
||
|
|
department to make sure things work in precise time for maximal efficiency.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Out of that, it is a pretty crazy story. Good, making sense, but crazy,
|
||
|
|
nonetheless.Good, making sense, but crazy, nonetheless.Good, making sense, but
|

|
