The Justine Case

The Justine Case by Silja Hansen As Justine starves herself in order to lose weight, strange things begin to happen. Is Justine losing her grip on reality or is something more sinister going on? The Justine Case is a short story where the cross between fantasy, dream and reality is blurred. The idea of self-identity against other people's perceptions of the self is both questioned and challenged, along with the idea of reality.
