“Is it true that human beings are fundamentally cruel? Is the experience of cruelty the only thing we share as a species? Is the dignity that we cling to nothing but self-delusion, masking from ourselves this single truth: that each one of us is capable of being reduced to an insect, a ravening beast, a lump of meat? To be degraded, damaged, slaughtered—is this the essential fate of humankind, one that history has confirmed as inevitable?”

Oh I am in shambles, I cried for the entirety of the last ~50 pages. A story about humanity's dignity and disgrace and despair and will. What can I say besides: please read it.
