However his plan backfires and hes killed by his future self. Rating give the short story a grade from 1-5 and motivate the grade, why was it good or braggart(a)? Id give this story a rating of three. It isnt badly written, but the story isnt very engaging.The author could slang described in more detail the feelings of the wife, or went more in-depth with Robert and the comment of his character and motivations.
