Description
In our latest episode, hosts Simone, Deb and Tanya discuss Study for Obedience from Sarah Bernstein. This book tells the story of a young woman who moves from the place of her birth to the remote northern country of her forebears to be housekeeper to her brother, whose wife has recently left him.
Soon after arriving, a series of inexplicable events occurs – deaths of cattle; the demise of a ewe and her lamb; a local dog's phantom pregnancy; a potato blight too.
She notices that locals suspect she might be the cause, the reason…
It explores themes of guilt, abuse and prejudice through the eyes of its unreliable narrator.
