And gradually, I began to feel sorry for those women determined to carry on living, pretending they were active and making decisions in the prison where they were locked up for ever, from which death was the only release – but would they remove the bodies?
spoilers and full review below.
you slowly find out more about this narrator as the story goes on. what you do know right away is that she lives in a bunker with about 20 (or 40, i can’t recall) other women and that they are trapped in that bunker, which is constantly watched by several guards, all day and all night. they have been living in that nightmarish prison for most of the narrator’s young life.
