'A literary giant, and one of my absolute favourite writers' TAYARI JONES, AUTHOR OF AN AMERICAN MARRIAGE 'An American writer with a powerful sense of vital inheritance, of history in the blood' JOHN UPDIKE, NEW YORKER 'Eva's silence, and her status here as legally insane, are eloquent testimony to the condition of being a woman in this man's world' KIRKUS REVIEWS Eva Medina Canada sits in her psychiatric ward, silent and unremorseful. She has murdered her lover and they want to know why. Her memories weave back and forth over encounters with the men in her life - the schoolboy who played doctors and nurses with a dirty popsicle stick; her mother's boyfriend; her cousin; her husband; a stranger on the bus. She's been propositioned and abused for as long as she can remember.

This book is...to put it simply, interesting. The speaker jumps around a lot but it definitely gives the story some extra flavor. It's like the reader is able to live in the mind of Miss Eva and she is truly a force to be reckoned with. All in all, the book is good. If you're interested in sex, drama, and a character with some serious mental set-backs, this book has it all covered for you.
