Description

Set against the chilling backdrop of 1591, the story unfolds on the eve of a woman's impending execution. Confined within the damp, dark walls of her prison cell, she reflects on a life marred by persecution and betrayal. As the hours dwindle, her thoughts drift through distant memories—of love, friendship, and the haunting specter of witch hunts that have enveloped her existence. The narrative captures her internal struggle, revealing a fierce spirit poised between despair and defiance.

Navigating themes of power, injustice, and the fight for identity, the woman wrestles with her fate while recalling the moments that brought her to this grim juncture. Each recollection weaves together a tapestry of resilience in the face of adversity, emphasizing the timeless allure of hope, even in the shadows of despair. The story challenges readers to confront the complexities of morality and the darkness that lingers within society, transcending time and place.

Jenni Fagan said so much in such a small number of pages. This Book is only 100pages, but it is so dark, so captivating and griping. It is emotionnal, hurts to read but feels like home and feels comforting at the same time.
