Description
The Darlings by Angela Jackson is a thought-provoking novel that explores how childhood experiences can profoundly impact our behaviour as adults. When Mark Darling's life takes a devastating turn at 15, he embarks on a journey of self-discovery and healing. As Mark navigates his complicated past, he finds himself drawn to Sadie, a woman who tries to mend the fractures in his life, and Ruby, an old schoolfriend who holds the key to reconciling his childhood wounds. But can Mark reconcile his desire for unconditional love with the relationships that have shaped him? This is a story about betrayal, infidelity, and the ways in which we often blind ourselves to the truth. With its nuanced exploration of human psychology, The Darlings offers a powerful and thought-provoking read.
