Really cool feminist psychological thriller that I’m sure SHOOK Italy in the ‘40s. Really great deep exploration of marriage, parenthood, and more.

I found it a really intriguing book but because we are told what was going to happen at the end at the start I found the ending to be quite anticlimactic.
Graphic: Child death and Emotional abuse
Moderate: Suicidal thoughts
