Poignant coming-of-age tales from a master of the genre, written with a rare and true grasp of how teenage girls feel. Set against atmospheric backdrops, often with a bohemian edge, these tales of loss and growth vividly capture their heroines’ dreams and fears. From the moving story of Macy Queen, trying to come to terms with her father’s death, to the trials of a girl who has a secret she feels unable to share with anyone, these are tales of finding the courage to change and overcome difficult circumstances, full of compelling characters who are impossible to forget.
