Mildred Pierce
(
Visual
)
in English and held by 5 libraries worldwide A violent opening gives way to a series of flashbacks which unveil the past. In rising from waitress to successful business woman, Mildred Pierce is apparently driven not by the quest for self-fulfillment but by service to her family. However her obsession with her daughter might be seen as a form of narcissism rather than the expression of a self-effacing maternalism. The style is that of film noir. Mildred has been described as the hard-boiled detective counterpart, her daughter as the femme fatale.
