Loved this story. The love of a mother and the struggle of the daughter are timeless and inevitable, Atwood capturing the nuances of both.

Quick short story I’ve had on kindle unlimited forever. Idk if I should count short stories towards my reading goal but oh well :) It was a very strange read but I enjoyed it. Not at all what I expected.
