The story is a tender retelling of a misogynistic tale from the Greek myths.
The afterword is excellent and so so important for appreciating this short story.

Madeline at it again with her gut wrenching stories😔 I couldn't put this one down, I was glued to it. It was dark, morbid, and I'm realizing that's my type of shit despite what I believed. It's a little bit more raw than her previous works, so that was jarring at first.
My copy had a little note from Madeline, which just made me love her and this work more.
I still cannot stop thinking about this book help me
