I remember reading this in University and loving it; what a thrill to read it again as an adult and find that I had good taste back then. This is a great story about mental health, feminism, isolation and more. The amount of interest packed into 17 pages is truly incredible. As the story progresses it gets more and more unsettling, and the ending is perfect. A must read.
