This novella is so weird and I was very intrigued while reading it. It is about a married couple, Celia and Martin, and the attack on them while they are driving home. Celia ends up with a schism in her mind, and Martin's body is taken apart and then spliced with a woman's body and then impregnated. Themes in this novella include autonomy, abuse of power, and disability. This is my second time reading something by Valkyrie Loughcrewe and I am excited to read more.
