Devastatingly beautiful. This story awakens an ancient wound and longing to be treated respectly by men in a world where that never seems completely within reach.

SOOOOO CRAZYTOWN... I've read this in her collection before but I'm rereading for class and it's still so good. Even when you know it, especially when you know it, the ending is so arresting and haunting. I will read in the dream house this year I swear...

I heard about this short story from a trivia site, and (after guessing the right answer - haha), went to read it and it's pretty amazing.
Lyrical, horrifying, sad, beautiful, and breaking the fourth wall. I will definitely be reading more of this author.
