Dorrestein one of the most extraordinary of our time

In the past, Dorrestein wrote about the relationships between men and women, but her last novels focus on families and everything that can go wrong. In her stories, she creates a world of it's own, but it never becomes a non-realistic world. She has the talent to grab your throat and let you see the world as it sometimes really is, while avoiding to be too realistic to become 'a once and never again' story. Unnatural mothers is a novel that is an example of a life of a girl, and on teh other hand tells you something about your own reaction to that - and your own - life. Renate Dorrestein truly is an great storyteller.
