Description
In a world where family bonds are tested by power, secrecy, and the stories we tell ourselves, a daughter confronts the unsettling legacy of her mother’s choices. As the past presses in, the narrative unfolds through shifting perspectives and sharp, darkly observant prose, revealing how love can coexist with control and how survival can demand moral compromise. With themes of motherhood, manipulation, and the cost of silence, the book examines what it means to inherit both trauma and agency. Margaret Atwood’s distinctive style—wry, incisive, and psychologically charged—turns an intimate domestic premise into a broader meditation on authority, identity, and the dangerous elasticity of truth.
