I’ve always been a fan of Shirley Jackson and I’m getting married this year. Though this is not the 1950’s and hardly any house wives exist anymore, I do worry I’ll lose myself in domesticity. I wanted to know how someone who created horror around it felt. If she was at all like me. This was a surprisingly comforting read in a moment where I needed it.
