This book is about different terminations. About what must — or is forced — to end: monarchies draining their countries dry; unwanted pregnancies when parents realize they can’t fulfill their obligations to a new life; and existence where emotions grow so unbearable that only death stops the pain. At the very moment her mother terminates a pregnancy, the daughter contemplates terminating her own life – all against the backdrop of King Charles’s visit to Canada, as the nation debates severing the dynastic chain. An unflinching exploration of abortions, suicide, and archaic systems of power. 15.07.2025
