... Once again, I'm not quite able to say something adequate in response.
Perhaps it's telling enough that even though I saw this chapter on my f-list earlier today, I couldn't bring myself to read it before I had finished everything on today's to-do list. It's just too crushing, too real.
What I like best is the connection: Even with the end of the war, things aren't over. This elemental horror about what humans are capable of remains a universal constant. No the-nightmare-is-over happy ending and pink fluffy clouds. Because there is no happy ending, ever. I like that the story is this realistic.
