This is a very short story, but it's good. It was predictable, but left me wanting more. Wagar's vocabulary and writing style are excellent.
This is my favorite passage:
"Original thinking could wait until one had earned the position. To do that, you needed to tread a well trodden path and hold your tongue when appropriate, perhaps even say one thing and mean another."
Who hasn't felt like that?

Too short for thr real conflict to play out. I would have glad fir 20 more pages where the context and consequences we elucidated.

Almost nothing happens here, so it's difficult to write a review...
