To be honest, the short story Lament has no 'criticisms' as such, if taken in the right sense of the word.

One could, however, critically appreciate the short story.

It's only possible flaw would be that some readers are only capable of sympathizing with the character, and not empathizing, which would be the essence of a true story. This is not the writer's fault, though. His language is quite simple for us to grasp and comprehend, and the immense feeling of sorrow that seeps through the pages as one flips through them is, for lack of a better term, absolutely brilliant. Just brilliant.
