Produktbeschreibung
Jessie Trim traces the interior world of a child shaped by emotional neglect, cryptic family history, and the silent burdens of memory. A young boy reflects on his early life, revealing how familial instability and poverty carve emotional fissures that linger long after moments have passed. The atmosphere is thick with unease as the household is dominated by a severe and peculiar grandmother, whose past, especially involving a shadowy figure from her history, casts a long presence over the child's experiences. The domestic world is rendered through the boy s perceptions, where seemingly minor details, like a haunting stone figure, assume profound symbolic weight. Early recollections are tinged with fear, confusion, and awe, as he attempts to understand his position within a household where affection is scarce and secrets are potent. The narrative captures the contradictions of childhood its inventiveness and vulnerability while revealing how a young mind absorbs and internalizes adult strife. The novel portrays resilience not as heroism but as quiet endurance in the face of emotional dissonance, with memory acting both as a vessel for survival and a mirror of unresolved pain.
