“In everything, she took care to imitate the third choice of Goldilocks: just right.” “They may not like me, but they respect me. Respect is better than like.” Short and unique; Margaret Atwood is not only marvellous at writing full lenght novels, she can also write compelling short stories.
good short story
Quick read für Zwischendurch - typisch Atwood, keine Schnörkel und Erkenntnisse eher auf einer Metaebene. Dennoch immer lehrreich und unterhaltsam.
Witchcraft, penis collection, superstitions vs. motherly love & protection... "You were such a sensitive child. So easily wounded. So I told you those things. I didn´t want you to feel defenseless in the face of life. Life can be harsh. I wanted you to feel protected, and to know that there was a greater power watching over you. That the Universe was taking a personal interest." "The protector was her, the greater power was her, the Universe that took an interest was her as well; always her." Writing these quotes brings tears to my eyes. I see that motherly love can move mountains, regardless of what others think of one. Expecting a baby, I feel my protective instinct growing exponentially and I am sure that my creativity will spill out of some divine source to come up with some stories to protect the little man wherever necessary. A short-story that I devoured with great appetite.
