Unintentionally read two stories about a woman/girl surviving alone with only animals as company surrounded by lush nature in a row. Loved this for its solitude, commentary on womanhood, and deep reflection.

I am utterly amazed. I loved this book very much. New favorite. Feminist, environmentalist, interrogatory towards the boundary of non/human. Very moving. Loved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
