What is How It Is about?

The story of How It Is (Part One) was told through an unnamed narrator, who tells us a tale of a journey in mud and darkness towards another traveller. Pim repeats his life as he hears it through the voice of another. In Part Two of the story, the narrator joins Pim, and there seems to only be one solution to the utterly bizarre circumstances he finds himself in; violence.
