Which pair of sentences from “ambush” best reflects that a flashback, or a shift in time, has occurred? she knew about the war; she knew i’d been a soldier. “you keep writing these war stories,” she said, “so i guess you must’ve killed somebody.” even now, i haven’t finished sorting it out. sometime i forgive myself, other times i don’t. when she was, nine, my daughter kathleen asked if i had ever killed anyone. i reached out and found three grenades and lined them up in front of me; the pins had already been straightened for quick throwing. i did not hate the young man; i did not see him as the enemy; i did not ponder issues of morality or politics or military duty. i crouched and kept my head low.
