I would agree with all the reviews posted here, I believe the author mainly talked about women’s violence and despite some stories being quite interesting, it was hard to grasp the overall message for each chapter. Maybe I am not intellectual, but it was just too complex for me too understand.  I think that the author would not be straightforward with the message and and in a very vague ending in each chapter. Perhaps this novel is not for me, but if you are ever wondering about what is going on in the mind of a woman in her 30s exploring her sexuality and motherhood this could be for you, but it is definitely a challenging reading.
