sandkings short story analysis

I …

In some parts of the story, I got into Simon’s skin, such as the part when he was running away from the sandkings. In the ending of the episode, a colony of sandkings is shown surviving in the wilderness. These semi-sapient insectoid creatures go through metamorphic changes similar to other known insects except for the sandkings, metamorphosis also means change in their intelligence level and not only in their physical appearance. Kress comes to believe that he is a god to his sandkings when the white group builds a sand structure that resembles his face. The original story does not specify the planet of Sandkings' origin.

Kress' obsession with the project causes his relationship with his wife Cathy (Helen Shaver) to break down. I plan on reading them all, but so far I've only read the title story, Sandkings, which is the last story in this book. There are two murders instead of at least ten.
