Great fiction can lurk in unexpected places
The book above is great
It really is
It has had no readers to speak of
But as its author I have
both madness
and method
+
At some point
someone with a following
a real one
not a Twitter-inflated one that
automatically adds my followers there
at some point someone will read this
and see the great movie within it
and it will become a monster classic
+
It has s strong woman protagonist
It progresses literally
She morphs into her former self
and ends up holding all the cards
What’s not to like
+
Along the way
poignancy mixes with
pursuit
It’s not the tale of a handmaid
it is the prelude to a
world that has some interest
