Life with Mother …

… Mother Land by Paul Theroux review – a phenomenally strange novel | Books | The Guardian. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)

“Mother” – she is never named, her family of origin and pre-marital life sketched so lightly as to suggest a wilful, defiant incuriosity – is almost without redeeming features: spiteful, devious, petty, mean, treacherous.
