I blame my expectations, but I certanly was hoping for something a bit different when I decided to read this book. Quite slow paced and I didn't much likt the writing style. Even so, I appreciate the authors effort to provide a glimpse into this character's origin.
On a side note, I see it's been tagged with "feminism" and I just can't understand why. The poor woman is trapped, her husband doesn't believe her, ignores her, treats her with contemp she does not deserve and when she becomes mad it's all because of him.
