Description

This is the debut novel from Rachel Trezise, winner of the Orange Futures Prize and the Dylan Thomas Prize.

Rebecca is trying to grow up fast but the whole world's against her. She falls in love, gets drunk, and takes drugs. There are things she needs to forget. But when writing and books take hold of her life, she starts to come up from the bottom. Depicting the hard, brutal edges of childhood, this novel reveals grown-ups who fight, steal, get drunk, and get arrested--and then give kids a hard time for taking drugs.
