spoilers and full review below.
you slowly find out more about this narrator as the story goes on. what you do know right away is that she lives in a bunker with about 20 (or 40, i can’t recall) other women and that they are trapped in that bunker, which is constantly watched by several guards, all day and all night. they have been living in that nightmarish prison for most of the narrator’s young life.
