It's complicated!! Each story in this anthology deals with the swallowing of a goldfish with different nuances, but all seem to be symbolic of change in some way. Like "swallowing" your feelings or accepting something new inside you. I could write an entire essay about my thoughts on this one specifically, but with the context of the others, I /think/ it may have to do with coming of age and bitter realisation. Maybe???
You know in normal scenario if I see something like this in the sidewalk I will be creep out lmao like the guy seem helpful at first and then just shove the fish to someone
Woahh, what it is about?
