Description
Absence and obsession are intertwined in this poignant coming-of-age story. Claudia's mother, also named Claudia, is a complex figure whose daily routine is marked by an unsettling fixation on the deaths of famous women.
The narrator's perception of her family dynamics is turned upside down when she witnesses a secret affair between her mother and her brother-in-law, forcing her to reevaluate her father's character. As tensions rise, Claudia's comments about depression and mental health leave the narrator worried about her mother's well-being.
