In its final movement, From Error to Error, Back and Forth transcends the confines of memoir and enters the realm of philosophical literature. Monika Killeen’s M — now settled on a small island off the coast of New Zealand — reflects on freedom, belonging, and the fragile equilibrium of happiness.
Through encounters with new friends like the enigmatic Constance, and moments of startling clarity, M begins to understand that peace is not the absence of pain, but its transformation. The sea, ever-present and untamed, mirrors her inner state — vast, unpredictable, and ultimately forgiving.
Killeen’s prose is both cinematic and intimate. She writes of migration as a state of the soul, where every departure is also an arrival. Beneath the surface of domestic life — fixing lightbulbs, unpacking groceries, sharing quiet laughter — lies an unspoken truth: healing is not a single act but a rhythm. We leave, we return, we rebuild.
This closing section completes a narrative that began in fear and ends in acceptance. Killeen’s achievement is profound — she has written a novel that moves between continents and consciousness with seamless grace. From Error to Error, becomes, in its final pages, a meditation on the human capacity to forgive both the past and oneself.
It is a book that lingers long after its last line, reminding us that every error, once faced, becomes a step toward home.
