Quote from Parkett
“...her work dramatizes, in many different ways, the primal violence of socialisation—the invariably traumatic way in which each individual must be ‘inserted’ into an ever-widening set of social, institutional frames: family, school, community, nation. ...And this rite of passage is for her characters as for each of us never a total success-indeed, it is often a botched job.”
