Review, THE GLOBE AND MAIL, April 16; MARBLE SKIN The Women’s Press, (). Suffer the little child. Extract, THE GUARDIAN, August 25; Howarth, Catherine (). Marble skin by Slavenka Drakulic. Through the seemingly simple (but deeply layered) language of Marble Skin, Slavenka Drakulić unweaves the conflicts and emotions that estrange and entangle women. A girl admires her mother’s body and yearns for the day when her own will blossom.  · Marble Skin is a novel that quietly comes at you, putting ice into your blood long before you are aware of it. Ms. Drakulić deals unflinchingly, and without jargon, pop psychologizing or editorial comment, with child abuse, incest and rape, making them more horrible for the nearly suffocated voice in which her heroine speaks of them.

Marble Skin. by. Slavenka Drakulić. · Rating details · ratings · 16 reviews. A sculptor carves a statue out of ice-cold, smooth, glittering marble and calls it "My Mother's Body." Her mother sees the sculpture, recognizes in it all the pain and frustration of their relationship over the years, and tries to take her own life. Forced.

However, Drakulic is not a fiction writer. This book is an improvement from her effort in Marble Skin, but I find that her fiction is pretentious-trying-not-to-be-pretentious, far-fetched (and these are not supposed to be fantasy or sci-fi novels), and completely devoid of anything really original.
