Description:

This novel is a stark account of someone totally convinced of her own insignificance by everybody around her, including, and especially by, those closest to her; her sister, her mother and the men who claim to love her. Through their continual belittling, she is pushed to the very edge of sanity. She is lied to, she is deceived; her trust is exploited, her self esteem is dragged through the gutter. She is alone, made to feel unaccepted and unacceptable. All she has is her relationship with her baby daughter, and she clings to that for her very survival. But, she realises even that precious relationship is being threatened. She is determined to fight her way free and struggle to start a new life.
