I like the slices of life in the piece - and in the interview as well. Very effective.

Just wonderful -- beautifully written and held together by the underlying themes of joy and sadness, luck and what it means to be unlucky. Above all is the horseshoe, which becomes a symbol of what it means to be blessed.
