This is a very sad and moving story about a woman who always knew she was an illigitimate child and was treated different, sometimes cruelly, by her mother and stepfather and members of the community. She was never told the hows or whys of her illigitimacy, but now that her mother is dying she is trying to find out. I enjoyed it very much, but the translation could have been better. It was originally written in Dutch. Some of the English phrasing sounds strange, like they translated verbatim, and not for feeling. Still, I enjoyed it and would recommend it.
