When The Bough Breaks, And Other Stories assembles a commanding collection of speculative and political fiction that confronts the tensions of gender, power, and social transformation. The title story presents a dystopian vision of reproductive control and state intervention, while other entries range across mythic retellings, science fiction, and incisive social commentary. Mitchison argues for autonomy and resistance through characters who challenge oppressive systems and reimagine societal roles. Her prose moves with clarity and force, balancing imaginative settings with urgent ethical questions.
