This was an incredible, heartfelt alternate history story that took two separate historical events - the Radium Girls of the early 20th century, and the elephant that was sentences to the electric chair - and winds them together in a way that makes complete sense and is at the same time completely fantastic.

I want more of this story. There's this entire other world that Bolander is only able to hint at here, and I'm completely fascinated by it.
