A wife is suspended in a bird cage; a thirteenth-century visionary
senses the foreskin of Christ on her tongue: Fleur Jaeggy's gothic
imagination knows no limits. Whether telling of mystics, tormented
families or famously private writers, Jaeggy's terse, telegraphic
writing is always psychologically clear-eyed and deeply moving,
always one step ahead, or to the side, of her readers'
expectations. In this, her long-awaited return, we read of an
'eerie maleficent calm, a brutal calm', and recognise the timbre of
a writer for whom a paradoxical world seethes with quiet violence.
