The debut novel from the author of "What to Look for in Winter," which has won awards.
Candia McWilliam verdiept zich in haar fictie in de complexiteit van menselijke relaties, waarbij ze thema's als eenzaamheid en ballingschap onderzoekt. Haar romans worden vaak omschreven als verontrustend en inzichtelijk, en peilen naar de donkere hoeken van het huiselijke leven en interpersoonlijke dynamiek. McWilliam blinkt uit in haar kenmerkende stilistische flair en haar vermogen om ingewikkelde personages te creëren, wiens innerlijke werelden resoneren met de lezers.
