"This is a truly engaging novel – an extraordinary ‘week in the life of’ a very ordinary human being.
Many of the characters have the only too common issues relating to difficult childhoods, to relationships, to control, to obsessions and addiction – issues that have profound effects on their families in particular and on their wider relationships. The book sensitively illustrates how so many of these issues endure because the person is unable or unwilling to confront and face them – and how this suppresses the real strengths that lie at the heart of their being.
The unique message of this novel is one of hope, displaying so much of the new findings from research in positive psychology and related fields. For anyone of any age who feels they have laboured with damaging and deep-seated attitudes and habits, it provides an ingenious route map to self-discovery and personal growth. This happens naturally through the interactions and wisdom shared between the key characters as they each seek to ‘square circles’ in their lives.
If you choose to read this, you may not only enjoy an engaging and sensitive story, you may also deepen your own journey of self insight and discovery."
