My review of Sergio Grech's book "Ħallejtna bħall-Erbgħa fost il-Ġimgħa" published in The Sunday Times of Malta (12.II.2023):


"Grech’s book is a brave exploration of specific themes. It tackles head-on the difficulties that arise between parents and their offspring. It is not afraid to voice anger, hurt and resentment. It explores the psychologi­cal traumas unwittingly im­planted by adults during childhood. It also bears the horrific effects of terminal illness and death on family members.


Though the author’s questions get no answers, the book seems cathartic, leading the author to take another step towards closure."
