Özet
SHORTLISTED: WOMEN’S PRIZE FOR FICTION 2022

An achingly beautiful novel of abuse, redemption and hope.

Alethea Lopez is about to turn 40. At work at a fashion boutique in Port of Spain she’s fashionable, feisty and fiercely independent. But behind closed doors she’s covering up bruises from her abusive partner and seeking solace in an affair with her boss.
When Alethea witnesses a woman murdered by a jealous lover, the reality of her own future comes a little too close to home. As she unravels memories repressed since childhood and faces up to the darkness of her relationship, she must understand the person she’s become and decide on the woman she wants to be…

“An extraordinary and emotionally immersive novel – the music of Lisa Allen-Agostini’s writing voice is gloriously specific to Trinidad, yet this heart-wrenching story of a woman both liberated and in need of liberation has universal resonance.” MARGARET BUSBY©2021 Lisa Allen-Agostini (P)2022 W.

I would definitely recommend this book, refreshingly powerful to listen to an author/ narrator from the Caribbean that did not hold back with they story and her authentic accent was just the cherry on top !

I absolutely loved the story
I also really liked the narration it was just difficult to understand at times. I could’ve done with looking at some of the words on paper while listening to it. Other than that I really enjoyed it.

An excellent and absorbing exploration of how abuse can hurt but not limit and diminish woman who is determined to survive.
A wonderful Trini voice

This story was often harrowing but also interesting and engaging. Elements of humour and a sense of endearment towards the main character were really enhanced by the narration and I am really glad I listened to this novel. It took me a little while to get used to the Trinidadian Creole but once more familiar with it I loved this aspect of how the book had been written (and of course performed). I even enjoyed listening tho the author's acknowledgements and the background of her book at the end of the story. Given that I had not heard of this book prior to it popping up as a suggested listen I am really pleased to have made this choice.

Suggested to me by Audible - Happy with my choice

This is a beautifully written narrative, that takes you on an emotionally charged journey of vulnerability, fear, abuse and ultimate triumph. The creole exquisite,

An incredible read!
