This short story marks a departure from what I'm used to seeing from this author. It deals with themes of recovery from a domestic violence situation.

While it is an incredibly short read, it's probably my favourite piece of writing from this author. The main character is so real, so raw, and so strong. I felt the themes of post-traumatic stress, recovery, and healing were exceptionally well-addressed.

I found this to be really powerful, and I loved the way the story was focused. This is overall great writing, although the subject matter does make it a hard read. It's so worth it.

I received a copy of this story via the author.
