In Die kwart-voor-sewe-lelie skryf Eleanor Baker met ’n satiriese aanslag en fyn insig oor die wel en wee van ’n stadsgesin wat bestaan uit ’n vergeetagtige ma, ’n gemoedelike pa, Iris en haar twee susters, Elsa en Kara, hul “Hollandse” hond, ’n huishulp wat presies weet wat sy wil hê en ’n buite-aardse beskermengel met ’n aardse humorsin. In die karakters se doen en late sien die leser, met ’n glimlag, baie van hom/haarself. “Ek het jou al vertel van my naam,” sê Iris, die sentrale figuur in hierdie bekoorlike roman,"...ek glo ek sal eendag blom."

Dié aangrypende verhaal van pyn en genesing ná die dood van twee broers enkele jare van mekaar word deur hul ma in die derde persoon vertel.

Dit word ’n hoendervleis-kry-ervaring om saam met die skrywer die wagtyd in ’n trauma-saal by Tygerberghospitaal deur te maak, of die soektog na ’n vermiste kind op see.

We are not born with a fixed amount of resilience. It is a muscle that everyone can build.
