Soldaat, Matroos
In haar eerste roman in meer dan tien jaar neemt Claire Kilroy ons mee in een verkenning van de vroege dagen van het moederschap: de botsing tussen de felle liefde voor een nieuw leven en de ingrijpende verandering van identiteit. Een jonge moeder ervaart rauwe, tumultueuze emoties na de geboorte van haar eerste kind, terwijl haar huwelijk onder druk staat en ze worstelt met vragen over liefde, autonomie en creativiteit. Wanneer ze ten einde raad is keert een oude vriend terug in haar leven. Kan hij een hulplijn zijn naar de vrouw die ze ooit was? ‘Kort maar volkomen meedogenloos. [De roman] komt met volle kracht op je af, alsof hij in één adem wordt verteld.’ – The Guardian ‘Kilroy weet op hartstochtelijke en eerlijke wijze de diepe en alledaagse realiteit van deze moeder aller overgangsrituelen onder woorden te brengen.’ – Financial Times ‘Schrijnend, geestig, wanhopig, liefdevol en trippy – een krachtig postpartumportret van overweldigende liefde.’ – Charlotte Van den Broeck
