Delicate yet brutal,  Childhood Made Up story pays testament to the power of love and the quiet heroism of resilience.

‘Infinitely poignant, acutely written, often witty . . . Through pain and grief, larded with comic flashes, Meersman skilfully guides us to an unexpected and deeply moving redemption.’ - Justice Edwin Cameron
