Like Mother unfolds in a day, tracking Louise's apparent unravelling via the three alternating voices of Louise, Steven and Gladys. All have secrets, and their questionable reliability as narrators adds intrigue and a sense of unease to a story that excavates the depths of shame, guilt and grief. Cassandra Austin writes compelling characters and skilfully encapsulates the era. Her portrayal of women's roles in the home in the 1960s, with all the associated feelings of loneliness, powerlessness and entrapment, is particularly well conveyed. Like Mother will appeal to lovers of women's fiction with a dark edge. Strains of Mommie Dearest can be found in the co-dependent mother-daughter relationship, while the central mystery of the missing baby will ensure rapidly turning pages.
