Why did Marla not come back for so many years? Why was there never any closure to the tension between Marla and Alex? Did they ever tell Beatrice that Marla is her mother?

Really enjoyed the premise of the book but the writing style just didn't grip me.

This story will stay with with me for a long time - how women and their many roles are portrayed is insightful and magical too. I shall ponder about its characters, their choices and the story world for decades. I noticed when reading the story there were moments I felt it was almost dangerous and subversive to be following the story yet there was a truth in it. I am changed by this story and grateful for it.
