All Comments on 'Foreign Worker'

I like the build-up, but the ending is too abrupt and it suffers from the sudden "knowingness" on the part of the young couple. It would have been better to keep the young couple naive as the boss continues his seduction.

You spend so much time building up the idea of this naive couple, in particular the fragile innocence of the young wife, then the whole thing falls apart in the last couple of paragraphs. Had she, say, slipped down into the pool and been slowly impaled whilst her husband looked on, not realising the true cause of the glazed expression on his wife's face, it would have had far greater erotic impact.

Did the hot bath dull the imagination? It was just a matter of 'suddenly remembering' one or two more ancient fertility traditions...

Do continue this story. It's just delicious!
