About this listen
One morning Laine wakes up to discover that the man she's been married to for 15 years has been secretively living out a monstrous lie. Her world is tilted on its axis. Now she must unstitch her existence, and peck through the pieces of her past... Just as Laine thinks she's reached the end of uncovering all the bitter truths, a child appears who demands her attention. This small fierce person forces her to see the horror and ignites the tiniest flame of hope within.
A brilliant debut novel.

its compelling reality and identifiable South African cast of characters
What moved me most in a South African context was the " Dorah" role and the deep memories it brought of similiar African women I was privileged to have in my own turbulent childhood.

Not a book but guerrilla therapy session
Throughout this book, I felt not like a reader but her therapist, like "Graham, not his real name", but whereas he was at least getting paid for it, I was getting nothing in return: the writing is not particularly poetic (even the birds metaphor felt like an artificial distraction pulled by its wings from the the skull-aching frustration of being forced to witness someone's screwed-up life), no "turnaround and finally stand up for yourself" inspiring moral, just chapter after chapter of her submitting to abusive people and circumstances and not changing her behaviour to finally take charge of her life. And finally, all the "positive" that eventually happens in her life, happens by chance, happens *to her*, none of it is of her initiative, and she submits to the good outcome with the same weakness as she submitted to her abusive mother, husband and her life.
