Wrong Title submitted by smog58 on January 14, 2024, 8:55am Time travel supposedly occurs in this story but it is definitely not the focus. Punishment in a rigid society is one theme and behavioral psychology is another. As usual, Oats does a superb job with character development of the protagonist. I was disappointed and confused about the ending.
