Produktbeschreibung
The Eddy: A novel of today opens with a tense portrait of domestic unease as a troubled and emotionally fragile woman anxiously anticipates the return of her daughter from finishing school. The mother's longing for a son highlights a deep dissatisfaction with her life, and her apprehension about her daughter's homecoming reveals the fragile structure of a household built on social performance and internal disarray. Conversations with her confidante and maid offer insight into her emotional instability and the suffocating expectations of her social class. The daughter, on the other hand, enters this world as a figure of quiet observation, carrying with her the hope of forming a real connection but also the potential to disrupt a carefully controlled environment. The gap between their emotional realities fuels a quiet storm, one that grows more powerful as the narrative pushes against facades and exposes deeper personal truths. The early chapters suggest a subtle unraveling of family life, focusing on the intimate collapse that results from long-buried secrets and unspoken relationships.
