I've just finished it, very, very moving - but please could somebody explain it to me?

(She's a great writer - I'm sure it's just me being thick.)

So (and I really read this YEARS ago like in 1997) but she's a ghost. Is that what you mean? She's a ghost narrating it, the one with the leg missing.

Yes, but so does that mean that she didn't really sleep with her own son and didn't really kill her husband? So was the whole of the book up till then a dream/fantasy? Sorry, you probably can't remember.

I might write to the author. Has anyone else done that?
