The Stepdaughter by Caroline Blackwood

The Stepdaughter by Caroline Blackwood

Abandoned by her husband and left alone in a New York apartment with his overweight, unloved daughter from a previous marriage, a woman's genuine bitterness and resentment curdle into an increasingly cruel epistolary confession about the child she cannot bring herself to love.

Blackwood writes with unflinching, darkly comic precision about maternal ambivalence and casual cruelty, and the novel's uncomfortable honesty about resentment toward a genuinely blameless child makes it a genuinely unsettling character study.

An unflinching, darkly comic classic examining maternal ambivalence and cruelty.
