Artist commentary for The Handmaid's Lament: Artist commentary:
Sara Stebbins ✑ (booklet commentary)
This piece is written about the Handmaid's struggle against the Condesce, her ultimate defeat, and a sort of bitter-tinged relief she feels from it. I wrote parts of this piece in twelve-tone, alluding to the twelve zodiac signs and the twelve numbers on a clock. I tried to keep this piece as simple as I could because I feel that the Handmaid has this silent, brooding austerity with a sense of anger within, which I tried to bring out in occasional dissonance.

So right away this song made me feel really sad. For Handmaid i mean. She needs hugs. But yeah, this song really makes me hear and or see her pain and I suppose relief from just being away from lord english's grasp. the jerk.
