短篇小說各篇經典，然同樣角色、場景反覆出現，讓讀者以多種視角獲取共時性。故事裡的他們善良而疲憊，在歷史泥淖中相互寬慰彼此。極盡嘲諷、嫌惡的對話與粗暴、駭俗的鬧劇般場景，暗藏兩代各自給予對方的溫柔：別忘舊傷痕，但一切僅是痛的回聲。蘇倒置了宿命論，不消極被動。故事排序是一陣喧嘩的從無到有，收束於一場屠殺記憶的和解。母子行過蠻荒現場時，「當你在思考我的歷史時，不須要即刻就看見所有事情，更不須要回憶那些發生在我世界裡的悲劇細節。」母親期盼兒子卸下沉重的義務，「面對我們所經歷的一切，細節算得了什麼呢？但對我——你的母親——來說，請切記，無論好壞，我們都稱得上是倖存者。可以嗎？我們一直都試著活下去。不然，我們還能做什麼呢？」在偽裝寧靜的加州谷地外的世界，仍有更值得擦拭、保護之處。
