A five star read from the Moth Box April selection I think. The opening line is:
“In case it’s slipped your mind, Dear Sir, let me remind you: I am your wife.”
Filled with twists and turns this novella explores the real harm we can do to each other as a result of destructive relationships. This is a story about the ties that bind family and marriage together and the chaos unleashed should those ties ever be undone. It is told from three perspectives. The Wife’s letters to her husband, written in the 1970’s just after he left her for another woman. A current day perspective from the Husband. And finally, the perspective of the grown daughter of the two children.
This is not the normal type of story I would read but I admit to finding it engrossing. Each person’s perspective completes the story of a very fractured family. It was a page turner to the end.
Recommended for anyone interested in a clever family drama.
