short story
By Harlan Ellison

History

First publication: Trapped, August 1956

Review

My synopsis doesn’t do this justice. Told from the POV of a woman in the gang who is having trouble with one of the gang members hitting on her. This leads to a very interesting ending to the story. This has Ellison’s edge and is very well told. Not a great story but very good and recommended.
