Description To Books Two Women
Danger and violence have always been part of Sue Dalston's East End upbringing. Unloved by her mother, abused by her father, and brutalised throughout her entire marriage, she smashed her husband's skull in a final act of desperation. All that keeps her sane is knowing that she's done it to protect her four children. At last, they are safe from harm. When she is celled up with murderess Matilda Enderby, their fates become inextricably linked. And no one - least of all Sue - could have predicted the consequences...Rating About Books Two Women

The first half of this book, i.e. the first 300 pages are about Sue Dalstons childhood. It was such a harrowing read as it is about the most awful women and child abuse. I nearly dumped this book, as it upset me so much, but then it changed to her being in prison and the end of all the abuse. I dont know why they called it Two Women, as to me, Matilda Enderby is not a main character. I enjoyed the second half of the book but I have read that many of this authors books are about child abuse IAbsolutely brilliant, the twists and turns made this a really good read. What a woman will go through for her family...
Another Martina Success.A saga that tells the story of women who lived lives that were very different and yet shared a bond. Susan, a woman who was born into poverty and parents who didn't care about her. Married to a outwardly loveable rogue, she kills him and ends up in prison. Susan shares a cell with Matty, a middle class woman who is also in prison for murdering her husband, but there the resemblance ends. I loved the bonds between some of the female characters and the wat that their
This is a long book at 672 pages but I have to say I enjoyed it very much. Two Women opens with us being introduced to Susan Dalston who is now locked up in prison for the murder of her husband. How far would you go to protect yourself and your children? Susan loves her kids more that life itself and she will do everything and anything in her power to keep them safe. This is quite a depressing and brutal story but is very well written. Susan's life is full of sadness, married to a man that
Wow! Wow! Wow!The story starts off with Susan being locked up and starting her jail sentence, we are then taken back to when Susan is a child and how her life was growing up and to events to where she finds herself back in the present day.Now this book won't be for everyone. Solely because it deals with abuse. We are talking sexual, physical and mental abuse. It really does make for some uncomfortable reading yet at the same time it was heart breaking and made me soooo angry. Sadly it is
An absolute doorstop of a book but what else would you expect from Martina? But unlike some of her other work not a single page was wasted and after a slow couple of days I went from 30% read on my Kindle on Saturday morning to finished early this morning (not in one sitting!) because I couldn't stop reading and wanted to see how everything turned out and I was not disappointed. The ending of this book was fantastic. After reading Mandasue Heller's Two Faced and being left disappointed I wanted
When the book is above 650 pages and mostly filled with the lives of criminals and their menacing deeds, there is only one thing that keeps you absorbed-- the writing. Hands down to the absolute brilliance of the author. On one hand, you may feel disgusted with the sheer violence of a certain section of society at a certain time, their brutal nature, selfishness, narrow-minded thoughts. While on the other hand, you wonder how much selfless a mother can be when most of the people around her
