Madeline Miller’s writing is so impeccable. I don’t know how you can read anything by her—even this short story—and not be amazed by her words. I knew nothing of the source material and I didn’t need to. A great little story about strong women and the inevitable downfall of awful men.
Graphic: Confinement, Cursing, Death, Misogyny, Sexual content, Toxic relationship, and Forced institutionalization
