In This Iron Ground by Marina Vivancos
5.0
4,8 stars rounded up.
Ok. Wow. This was. This was something. I cried 3 times in the first 40% of the book. And I’m not prone to crying while reading. It was deep. It was heavy and heartbreaking. And it was beautiful. Brilliant portrayal of the ways our psyche can try to help and protect us, doing the exact opposite. And how deep our fears and inner beliefs are rooted, how very hard it can be to change them.
The writing is beautiful.
I truly recommend this book, if you can stand reading trough child abuse and other heavy topics. I totally understand this isn’t for everyone and can be very difficult to read.
