The Unblessed Dead Quotes

“It’s as if we all three consciously decided to ignore the awkward moment. But that’s what we’re all good at: pretending. We’re always pretending that everything is fine, that the rules don’t strangle us, that we aren’t afraid, and that the injustice of our situation doesn’t enrage us. I now see clearly how every woman in my life is shackled to a society that judges them harshly and gives them very little freedom in the choices they make.”
― Rhiannon Frater, The Unblessed Dead
