I wish the story was longer, I could not get enough of the characters and the story! An insightful outlook on incel males and the perverse artistic pursuit for perfection. It was a twisted story of possession and freedom, with a very strong willed female lead. A must read for lovers of Miller’s other works. A short story you can eat through in one sitting, but will stay memorable for the rest of your life.
