Description
May lives by the shore in a fomer girl's school that her mother has turned into a guest house. May is twelve and she and her mother and brother have come from London to live by the sea. May observes the adults and their complicated games with an eye unmisted by sentimentality, and struggles to find solid ground for herself. In this dazzling first novel Galaxy Craze has created a character as convincing as Paddy Clarke, a milieu as finely drawn as that of Hideous Kinky.
