“Stone Mattress” and “Torching the Dusties” are the two that made me think the most about real-life issues that are important to me. I really liked them both and the way Atwood writes is always impressive to read. “Lusus Naturae” and “The Freeze-Dried Groom” are two other excellent pieces for their creepiness and absurdity.
