Problem woman-child

If you ever had a nightmare influenced by CS Lewis' "The Chronicles Of Narnia", I'll wager it wasn't half so disturbing or despondent as the Neil Gaiman short story "The Problem Of Susan". Which is not to say I don't recommend NG's 2004 yarn - you just won't read "The Last Battle" or contemplate the fate of the elder Ms Pevensie in the same way again.
