Book Synopsis
Twists and Turns is a tale on the scale of Greek myth, about the inescapable entanglements of family relationships, that can lead one, in hyperbolic mode, to envision murder and suicide, for, as Cixous writes, with love's force one hates. And yet, everything twists and turns: this is a tale with profoundly touching reversals.
