L'appartement au carré

The story centers on a woman confined within a "square" apartment with an infant, where her existence is defined by a repetitive cycle of nursing, weighing, counting, and record-keeping. A turning point occurs when she rebels against a "false choice" presented by a traveling salesman; this act of defiance allows her to finally find the words to speak to the child about her true desires.
