i googled that book just now and saw she was compared to jean rhys. WHAT A SURPRISE

there's some similarities in their backgrounds in that they were both colonials and poor.

but the lover is a masterpiece of sadness. she's fantastic!

anyway when you're over your need for girl drama (i imagine you find something cathartic in their predicaments) i can recommend other very different stuff.

but read that one. fucking great book.
