Sparks fly as they exchange ideas about Camus and masculine desire, and their intellectual connection promises more - but there are obstacles to this burgeoning relationship.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile Tessa's husband Milton enjoys Charlie's company, Charlie's wife Wah is a different case, and she proves to be both adversary and conundrum to Tessa. Wah's traditional femininity and subservience to her husband strike Tessa as weaknesses, and she scoffs at the sacrifices Wah makes as adoptive mother to a Burmese girl, Htet. But Wah has a kind of power too, especially over Charlie, and the conflict between the two women leads to Tessa's martini-fueled declaration that Wah is 'an insult to womankind.' As Tessa is forced to deal with the consequences of her outburst, she wonders if Wah is really as weak as she has seemed, or if she might have a different kind of strength altogether.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn exercise in empathy, an exploration of betrayal and a charged story of the thrill of a shared connection - and the perils of feminine rivalry - \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eMy Nemesis\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eis a brilliantly dramatic and captivating story from a hugely talented writer.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-header a-expander-partial-collapse-header\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"TPB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49294295433439,"sku":null,"price":13.8,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0410\/9529\/9228\/files\/A1V0GVDDJLL._SY522.jpg?v=1779426549","url":"https:\/\/www.bookmarket.com.sg\/products\/9781804710227","provider":"BookMarket","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
