Mary Ventura and the Ninth Kingdom

All aboard the train to the Ninth Kingdom, or the kingdom of frozen will. This short story felt like being aboard a train to uncertain doom. Plath’s detail and symbolism is astonishing, in a short amount of time you get this eerie and uneasy feeling that the uncontrollable motion will not stop.

You’re probably going to read this if you’ve already read The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath, its short enough to read in a single sitting while you contemplate your life choices and mortality.
