A review by hrhacissej
God on the Rocks by Jane Gardam

3.0

Margaret is 8 years old and privy to adult situations that are out of her realm of experience. She is unusually perceptive but still has trouble making sense of her parents' lives as well as those of her nanny and adult acquaintances. Because of her ignorance, the story becomes more intriguing as you, the reader, piece together the personal stories of each character.

There's humor but mostly this is a bittersweet tale of choices and loyalty and class.
