About the book:
This influential Afrikaans novel tells the story of Griet Swart—driven by the trauma of miscarriages, child-loss and divorce—to the edge of despair (she even attempts to stick her head into a gas-oven). A dead cockroach in the oven “saves” her, prompting an unusual night of oven-cleaning and, subsequently, therapy in the form of writing. It is a darkly humorous, unflinching exploration of loss, identity, and healing. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
