Who is Veronica? What is she so afraid of?
Following the birth of her second child, beautiful successful Veronica inexplicably stops speaking and refuses to see her baby. Her psychiatrist suggests writing as therapy. She pours out her ghosts and memories into her laptop, but she won’t divulge her secrets to him. So each night he hacks in through the hospital network and reads them — no-one, he believes, writes only for themselves …
‘Murphy’s skilful use of the figurative suggests both metamorphosis and psychosis, as the boundaries between people, bodies and things coalesce.’ — Australian Book Review.
