Satirony

  1. In Tom Smith’s “A Little Too Igor,” where does reality leave off and satire begin?

  2. In Arthur Vibert’s “Compost,” Harry seems to have a certain physical handicap, but it’s not mentioned. What is it?

  3. A possible moral for Mari Mitchell’s “Fur and Moonlight”: “Shoot werewolves if you must, but for heaven’s sake don’t make boots out of their pelts.” Can you think of any other moral for the story?
