Please Undo This Hurt

By Seth Dickinson
Please Undo This Hurt by Seth Dickinson digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

From the author of The Traitor Baru Cormorant comes "Please Undo This Hurt", a Tor.com Original short story from science fiction and fantasy writer Seth Dickinson

Ever feel like you care too much? After a breakup, after the funeral...it feels like the way to win at life is to care the least.

That's not an option for Dominga, an EMT who cares too much, or her drinking buddy Nico, who just lost his poor cat. Life hurts. They drink. They talk:

Nico's tired of hurting people. He wants out. Not suicide, not that - he'd just hurt everyone who loves him. But what if he could erase his whole life? Undo the fact of his birth? Wouldn't Dominga be having a better night, right now, if she didn't have to take care of him?

And when Dominga finds a way to do just that, when she is gifted or armed with a terrible cosmic mercy, she still cares enough to say:

I am not letting him have this. I am not letting Nico go without a fight.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

“CW: suicide ideation and depression I’m someone who tries to avoid books which feature suicidal thoughts but I didn’t know this story had similar themes. While it makes some good points about - how compassionate people are the first ones who feel burnout and scared of contemplating self harm despite being depressed, because they don’t want to hurt others with their decisions - I can’t say this was enjoyable. The writing also felt very disjointed and confusing at times.”
