so-soThis book requires context. It‘s written as an interior monologue into which the reader is thrown mid-discussion. The narrator is ruminating on two timelines – her struggle to survive after abandonment in the veld and her life as a slave. the combination of not understanding her current situation, not knowing the history of the time period, and the complex literary language in which it is written made it a more confounding than enjoyable read.

I'm not usually a fan of short stories, I crave depth and like to emerge myself in the story, but Lawrence has shown me that you can still do this with short stories.

JT Lawrence can write any genre and I will follow her blindly. The way she draws you in, no matter what the subject blows my mind.
Each character played their part and Lawrence knows how to draw you in.
