This is a dark and depressing novel about a highly unlikeable main character, amputee Deidre, who is coming to terms with her current life in an almost dystopic Cape Town (water shortages, power issues) and also the legacy of her family’s actions during the apartheid era. I found it hard to look away as the story unfolds and still have questions at the end. An intense read.
