Summer heat

Sun beat down on flat roofs in long Karachi summers. 

Electricity failed. Lines melted. Disconnecting and falling in the street.

The interior of our home was an oven. Climbing over 100 degrees at times. 

We read of people dying in Chicago one summer. Why? Fans combined with heat above a certain temperature in their apartments turned those spaces into convection ovens. 

Oh. We were getting cooked.
