The School for Good Mothers

by Jessamine Chan (£12.99, HB, Cornerstone) What makes a bad mother? This is Frida’s story of what happens when she is sent to a re-education centre to learn how to become a good mother. Having made a negligent parental decision, Frida is incarcerated in a chilling authoritarian world of harsh rules and animatronic dolls, where she’s forced to comply if she wants to ever be reunited with her daughter. An unforgettable and haunting story about the thoughts, opinions and choices you make.
