'The Making of Christina asks how well we know the people we love and if we can pay the price of truth.

Rather, Christina is about facing the most unpleasant aspects of human nature head-on, with or without a crash helmet, and learning that you can survive. This book will not, therefore, be to everyone’s taste. But the reading can be cathartic for those prepared to brave its depths.' (Introduction)
