Description

A suburban matron's life is turned upside down when her young daughter's beau is found dead. As she navigates the complexities of wartime domesticity and maternal love, she finds herself drawn into a web of relationships that challenge everything she thought she knew about those around her. This novel explores the intricate bonds between mothers, daughters, and servants, revealing the hidden dynamics at play in even the most ordinary-seeming lives. With its nuanced portrayal of women's experiences during wartime, The Blank Wall is a gripping and thought-provoking read. Persephone's edition features 231 pages of tightly-wound prose that explores the darker corners of human relationships with unflinching honesty.
