Armistice, Inc. is truly a good piece of work. I loved how the author creates and maintains the tension. The story starts slow, however as it progresses it becomes more and more dynamic. The title is quite playful both because of the military metaphor used, which implies marital problems may be thought of as a war, and due to the proposed way of achieving the armistice (i.e. the death of one of the spouses).

The contrast between the initial and final thoughts of the narrator suggests love is a feeling which remains sealed and uncloaks itself only under threat. Such an understanding of eros is close to my own definition of this dear feeling, therefore the writing you selected was a real pleasure for me. If I were to nitpick, the only minute spot of bother would the formatting, otherwise everything was of great quality.
