A Sisterhood is an array of feelings, emotions, and connections. It can't be described in one certain way or by one word. Yes, it is challenging but no one ever said that it would be easy.

    The short story, “St. Lucy’s Home for Girls Raised by Wolves”, by Karen Russell, is an allegory about the pressures children face as they grow up, and what they lose as a result. First and foremost, one of the most important reasons that this short story is an allegory about the pressures children face as they grow up, and what they lose, as a result, is when the pack starts to become jealous of one another.
