Title: The perils of voyeurism
Review: What Was She Thinking (don't you love the title?) is a double character study that is utterly engrossing. It examines the dangers of voyeurism, leaving readers feeling that's exactly what we're guilty of ourselves as we voraciously keep turning the pages.Barbara slowly befriends Sheba, another woman in the school where they are both teachers, and equally slowly Sheba reveals details of her relationship with a 15yo student. Through author Heller's piercing writing, the characters of both women are more fully revealed - and by the end we feel as if our own inner secrets have been probed with a dental pick.Superb.
