eowynshelmet 's review for:
The School for Good Mothers
by Jessamine Chan
A worthy companion to [b:The Handmaid’s Tale|38447|The Handmaid’s Tale (The Handmaid's Tale, #1)|Margaret Atwood|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1578028274l/38447._SY75_.jpg|1119185], but this time directed at the act of mothering. I wonder if I would have been a little more engaged if Chan had approached this in a way similar to Atwood, by using only actual historical or contemporary practices? The story was provocative but, I think, too long. You get it and then the author doubles and triples down on what's already clear.
