Breadcrumbs:
Quote #155 from The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood
How awful, we would say, and they were, but they were awful without being believeable. They were too melodramatic, they had a dimension that was not the demension of our lives.
We were the people who were not in the papers. We lived in the blank white spaces at the edges of print. It gave us more freedom.
We lived in the gaps between the stories.
