  • "Aan het sterfbed van haar moeder kijkt een vrouw kijkt terug op de relatie met haar moeder, die van grote invloed is geweest op haar leven."
  • "It is the mid-Sixties and thirteen-year-old Cassandra Fitzpatrick is growing up in a household full of waifs and strays and general misfits. Despite her unorthodox home life, she is generally content - until something happens that turns her life upside down. Her unhappiness deepens when she is sent away to boarding school, and accustomed as she is to her mother's eccentricities even she is not prepared for the announcement Mrs Fitzpatrick is about to make. Years later, as her beloved mother lies dying, the adult Cass reassesses the experiences, good and bad, that have made her who she is."
