The chapter opens with Kennedy reflecting on the dichotomy of public defenders: idealists who believe they can change the system and realists who recognize its overwhelming flaws. She describes the grueling reality of the job, where victories are small and personal, like reuniting a rehabilitated mother with her child or winning a motion to suppress evidence. The work is Sisyphean, with endless caseloads, poor pay, and little recognition. To cope, Kennedy and her colleagues draw strict boundaries between…-

It lacks the frills of an American inn, replacing them with firm pillows, punctual mealtimes,…

Chapter
A Slight Mistake
A Slight Mistake begins with a light exchange that immediately sets the tone—Mrs. Hilary prepares for a charitable event with all the seriousness of a general at war, while Mr. Carter offers his support in the form of a rather laughable monetary donation. His contribution, intentionally meager, is less about stinginess and more about his usual blend of detachment and mockery of earnest causes. Mrs. Hilary, determined and mildly exasperated, takes the jest in stride, pressing on about her mission to…-

CHAPTER XIII – Dawn O’Hara: The Girl Who Laughed unfolds with quiet introspection, as Dawn examines the shifts in her understanding of love and commitment over the last decade.

Despite her…
