I have a hit or miss relationship with Atwood. This is definitely a hit. A great short story that will have you wanting more at the twist ending. This was an interesting look into two closed communities. An actual one & a marriage. It left me wondering if Consilience brought out the characteristics in the couple or if this was who they always would have been. It was chilling at times & all the while I couldn't help but think these people were playing out their lives with showtunes & Doris Day in the background. It added a macabre layer that I must admit I liked & found amusing. Definitely worth the read.
