I was surprised to see that one of the recommendations on the book's cover spoke of its gentle humour: I didn't find anything to smile about in this book. It made me very sad, and at times very frustrated with Alice as a character. Even when released from the toils of the domestic abuse, I was sorry to see that her entire sense of self and happiness still depended entirely on the actions of others. I guess the abuse rendered her unable to fully recover her sense of self.
Brilliantly written and certainly a book to revisit. I might like Alice more the second time around, as I continue to process her helplessness.
Highly recommended.… (más)
