About this deal

Banged up in Holloway, all that keeps her sane is knowing that her children are now safe from the man who terrorised them. It's true that the novel is a little too long in places but with tgid spanning three decades and the inclusion of additional references from Thatcher's government to New Labour under Gordon Brown it really helps highlight the passage of time. This is a violent world and the language is authentic - the rhyming slang is used appriately and naturally. I only wish I had used a notebook at the start to collect all the phrases.

As is quite usual with Martina Cole novels, we find out the ending, or near ending, in the prologue and the rest of the novel takes us from an early point, through a desparately hard life to the point where we meet the prologue again. Probablemente al ver esta calificación podrán decir quizá que hay libros peores, que esto no es nada... y puede que sea así, y los he leído. pero a diferencia de los otros, este libro puede llegar a resultar tóxico e irritante: tanto maltrato, violencia hacia la mujer, por cada página que estés leyendo te encuentras con golpes, insultos y perjurias. no creo que sea necesario contar aquí de lo que trata, pues la sinopsis es muy explícita. Varias veces estuve a nada de dejarlo, pero adivinen? debía terminarlo porque era la lectura mensual de un grupo de whatsapp. encima que soy de los que al presenciar una escena de violencia de ese aspecto en la TV por medio de las películas, telenovelas o similar, suelo temblar de la rabia, así que ya han de imaginar al leeer este libro. Se entiende perfectamente lo que la autora trata de reflejar en este libro, y pese a lo que me produjo, debo decir que lo logró más que bien. La realidad es así y más todavía de lo que se puede mostrar en un libro, en especial teniendo en cuenta que miles de mujeres no suele terminar bien, mucho menos con algún final feliz. a b c Ross, Deborah (3 November 2011). "Martina Cole: 'I know I don't write literature' ". The Independent . Retrieved 5 November 2015. Three of Cole's novels have been adapted for the stage by the Theatre Royal, Stratford East, London: Two Women in 2010; The Graft in 2011, and Cole's first novel, Dangerous Lady in 2012. [11] Other interests [ edit ]Cole is one of the worst writers I've read in a while. The only style she has to speak of is a tendency to repeat herself and treat the reader like an idiot. Yes, Ms. Cole, I can remember what happened two chapters ago, thank you; there's no need to keep reminding me. She has no idea what characterisation or character development are. Her characters don't learn or grow; they're the same from start to finish. Cole was born in Essex, England, to Irish Catholic parents, and was the youngest of five children. Her mother was a psychiatric nurse from Glasnevin, County Dublin and her father was a merchant seaman from Cork City. Her cousin is the Cork politician Denis Cregan. She was expelled from her convent school aged 15 after allegedly being caught reading a Harold Robbins novel. [1] [2] An explosive story of East End violence, the terrors of prison life and the pursuit of justice against all odds, with a heroine whose heartbreaking story will stay with you forever

In a way they experienced the same ups and downs as any family. There was great times, some even funny. But there are always sad times. Along with TV executive producer, Barry Ryan, Cole co-owns the film and television production company "2 Queens". [9] Theatre [ edit ] Martina Cole - Sky Arts: The Book Show".

a b Shepherd, Robert. "The Broadcast interview: Martina Cole, crime author". www.broadcastnow.co.uk. Media Business Insight . Retrieved 5 November 2015. Two Women’ is my favourite so far of the books I’ve read by Martina Cole. It was heartbreaking at times and heart-lifting at others. The characters were so well developed you can’t help but love them, or hate them as the case may be. Pemberton, Max (27 October 2013). "Martina Cole's arthritis is the real crime". The Telegraph . Retrieved 5 November 2015. Freddie conheceu o importante Ozzy no período em que esteve preso tornando-se seu protegido; e assim que saiu em liberdade assumiu o papel de líder dos negócios escusos que Ozzy comandava da cadeia. Uma pessoa extremamente violenta e pouco racional, que negligencia sua mulher e filhas, preferindo passar seu tempo livre bebendo, se drogando e tendo relações com a maior quantidade de mulheres possível. This book needs serious trigger warnings. Huge amounts of child sexual assault and domestic violence.Cole filmed an investigative documentary, Martina Cole Girl Gangs: Los Angeles for Sky1 in 2009. This focused on the role of girls in these gangs, which have been responsible for crimes ranging from drug dealing and car theft to robbery and murder. [10] The author really understands her characters and spends a lot of time in their heads. This allows us to understand their motivations, simple as they may be. In the beginning, I had mixed feeling about the book, but as I caried on reading, I realised it was the characters that were causing those feeling. The book is great and so are the characters. My initial problem was that their world is so different to my world. I find it easier to identify myself with Star Wars characters, wizard or time travellers than with gangsters and all their habits.
