| 520 | _a"Divvy Up" by Milt Lesser is a hard-hitting science fiction story written during the early 1960s. Set in a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by war, the narrative explores themes of survival, betrayal, and moral decay in a society where inhumanity has become commonplace. The protagonist, Hardesty, navigates a brutal landscape where even the simplest acts are steeped in treachery and self-interest. The story follows Hardesty, who is part of a firing squad about to execute a condemned man. When a girl unexpectedly shoots the prisoner before the command is given, chaos ensues, presenting an opportunity for Hardesty to scavenge the dead man's belongings. He encounters the widow of the condemned man, leading to a tense confrontation that reveals the dangers of betrayal in this bleak society. As the bombed-out city bears witness to wartime atrocities, Hardesty's struggle for survival culminates in a final twist of fate, revealing the extent of deception around him when the very woman he sought to ally with ultimately leads to his demise. "Divvy Up" illustrates a chilling portrayal of human nature in the face of relentless desperation. (This is an automatically generated summary.) | ||
