I don't have much to say about this, but it's good. I'm aware this found a resurgence in popularity either because of or in tandem with a reprint. You'll enjoy this short read if you like a morose, calm, naive, and avoidant narrator who is observing various household pleasures and the post- (ambiguous)fallout of bunker societies and the decay of her female peers and within herself.
