ptreick 's review for:

The Younger Wife by Sally Hepworth

---

I wanted to love this. Hepworth does so many things well here -- getting the reader to question what we believe, twisting and turning and pulling the story forward. I've enjoyed this in her other works, and I'll definitely read what she writes next. But I'm definitely sensitive to stories of women being believed, and I felt uncomfortable being asked to play that game with this subject matter.
