Mary Toft; or, The Rabbit Queen

Palmer's take feels both playful and unsettling—I'm curious what motivated the blending of historical fact with satire in this retelling.

The way society's obsession with spectacle plays out felt so relevant today. Did others feel a connection between the historical and modern crowds?

The humor and dark comedy made the story feel more accessible, but I wonder if it also softened the real tragedy behind the spectacle.
