What she hasn't reckoned with is the tangle of jealousies, resentments, and familial complications that she had thought, in leaving the country, she had put behind her  a tangle that ensnares her before she even arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u0026amp;#x27;\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eWall\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eis an extraordinarily compacted work of rich complexity, humour, and sadness. Its narrator\u0026amp;#x27;s steadfast desire to explain herself, to clarify the seemingly unclarifiable, is as close to mirroring the roiling momentum of real consciousness that I\u0026amp;#x27;ve read in a modern novel. When I read Jen Craig I find it impossible to imagine a better way to capture the mysterious workings of the mind  its inadvertent epiphanies, its loose but determined associations, its cruelly recurring entrapments  without writing just like her. But no one else could.\u0026amp;#x27;  Shaun Prescott\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46861506576542,"sku":"ADS-9781922571618","price":29.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781922571618.jpg?v=1779253199","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781922571618","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
