| Honest, sometimes humorous and often tragic, Fridaâ s narrative tells a modern tale of a conflagration of deceit, adultery, regret and love. Frida, childless by choice, is an artist with a heartbreaking childhood history. When she agrees to allow her husbandâ s spurious daughter into their lives they are devastatingly changed forever. Frida tells her story while confined to a hospital bed where a very young lawyer relentlessly pushes for a recounting of events. Fridaâ s memory, though often faulty and sporadic, comes back to her in poignant scenes that she is forced to relive, each alarming act leading to yet another even more ill-advised. In Frida, Deirdre Simon Doreâ s evocative writing has created a difficult, blunt and vitally genuine â reluctant motherâ . A contemporary novel of a woman whose relationships are an exercise in hilarity and tragedy both. |
