Eyes of the beholder.
In an incredibly odd way I like looking at pictures my contacts mark as 'favorite'. And, I often look at my own favorite pictures. Which is why I find this a nice way to see what appeals to the eyes of the beholders who aren't me.

600 Hours of Edward.
A significant characteristic of short stories or, short pieces of fiction is what is called শেষ হইয়াও হইল না শেষ or, in spite of the story reaching the end you'd not just close the book and move on with life. The refrain continues.
The kind of celebration of life's emotions which were present in The Summer Son are present in abundance in 600 Hours of Edward. The writing is deliberately and artfully contrived to be repressed and surging with emotional upheaval through the pages. You simply cannot rush through Edward Stanton's plans for himself and his 'management' of the plans. The book ends with the orbit but you remain hooked about Edward. What happens to him.
Recommended read. If you are interested in reading a review before reading it - here's one.
