A haunting book, with an outstanding sense of place and inner space: unsettling as well as memorable.
Margaret Drabble
The story is a painful inquiry into motherhood and alternate necessities, our truer natures — it isn’t a rejection of maternal love; it’s a rejection of social entrapment and the damage of stultifying roles.
Sarah Hall
A modern masterpiece: provocative, radical and deeply moving on motherhood and how we choose to build our lives.
