“I think the sensuality of the woman’s condition of craving… not just food… but stimulation to prove life in a secure way is brilliant. It is evocative of Sartre’s Nausea with its descriptions of existentialist angst and the fear of being adrift on a turbulent sea without anchor and also the devaluing of self by trying and failing to live up to other’s expectations. The present is indeed tense. I’m looking forward to Tanya’s adventures.
