Praise for the work
Obijski writes with the patience of someone who trusts her reader completely. Every sentence earns its place on the page.
A rare novel that asks difficult questions and refuses easy comfort. The ending stayed with me for weeks — the way a real conversation does.
This is the kind of book that doesn't announce itself loudly. It settles into you quietly and doesn't leave. Obijski is a voice worth following.
