Josephine has an easy-going relationship with her boyfriend, Luke. But after witnessing her parents' divorce, and as Luke starts to advance in his career an artist, Josephine is forced to contend with challenges growing in her own relationship. By examining a failed marriage, as well as through exploring complex topics of gender in art, the author - through Josephine - challenges set perceptions of relationships and problem resolution.No relationship is easy, and not every person is exactly how they seem. Sometimes it takes a long time to realise the bad, and longer still to rediscover the good on the other side. It's through empathy that we can begin to better understand one another, overcome our pain, and begin to restrengthen the bonds that once connected us.

Sophisticated linguistic expression
The book highlights the struggles of long-term relationships. A lot happens without getting out of hand. Since the book has very short chapters, the story is very condensed. Nevertheless, it is clear what the author wants to convey.

A very enjoyable read
I really enjoyed the writing style of this book. It feels like a lot of thought went into every sentence and it is easy to envision what is going on, despite the short chapters.
The story is doing a great job at pointing out some hurdles in long-term relationships and how to deal with them.

Great read
The book made me rethink what relationships are supposed to be like and helped me see things from a different perspective. The writing style is beautiful and poetic without going overboard on the poetry. I highly recommend it!

Fantastic!
Didn't know quite what to expect from this read when I first picked it up.
But, this short read is now definitley one of my favorite in this category. The style of writting is perfect for what it intends to do. (Without spoiling it).
The core lessons with the main character Josephine, and the dilemas of heartbreak, seperation, and forgivness are easy to understand and relate too. I would recommend this book to anyone who has had too close an encouter with adultery in any part of their lives.

Author's Debut
This is my debut book. I'm very proud of the result, or else I wouldn't have published it.
This book takes inspiration from classics but touches on contemporary themes about complicated relationships, and the representation of women in art. The book is both contextually rich, but easy and enjoyable to read.
I can only recommend it, and I hope other avid readers will find joy and meaning in the story as well.
