This novel is a stark account of
someone totally convinced of her own insignificance by
everybody around her, including, and especially by,
those closest to her; her sister, her mother and the men
who claim to love her.
Through their continual belittling, she is
pushed to the very edge of sanity. She is lied to, she
is deceived; her trust is exploited, her self esteem is
dragged through the gutter.
She is alone, made to feel
unaccepted and unacceptable.
All she has is her relationship with her baby daughter,
and she clings to that for her very survival. But, she realises
even that precious relationship is being threatened.
She is determined to fight her way free and struggle to
start a new life.
This is a totally engrossing read. The
style is raw and ‘full on’ and yet….there are also
touching, even humorous moments of laughter and love.
