About this ebook
Adaptation tampers with the twins in this penultimate instalment of The Crooked Little Pieces: an edition that seals both into unnatural habitats.
Domesticity daunts Anneliese as she enjoys (endures?) a liberating love. Across an ocean unfamiliar faces shun the shrinking soul of Isabel. Belligerently climbing up the academic ladder, Susanna hangs up her psychiatrist spurs to be reached… never. Homelessness becomes a state of mind and misses mischief till a road trip tilts predictability.
An interlude of dire longing, The Crooked Little Pieces: Volume 6 confines its heroines to safety destined not to last: a test for feuding selves.

Her Substack Crepuscular Music comprises classical music and opera reviews that seek to capture the ephemeral escapism of live performance. You can find it at at sophialambton.substack.com.
