I must give my congratulations to the editors for publishing fiction along with the other articles in the magazine. I read for a variety of different reasons - sometimes just for pure entertainment - sometimes because I want fiction to challenge me just as much as a sober philosophical essay. But finding "philosophical fiction" can be a difficult thing.

It's hard to write a good piece of fiction when the intent is to highlight the philosophical underpinnings. Getting the right balance between story and message is a challenge. So, kudos to Vivian Todini.
