Athene Price has always been dutiful, clever, sweet-natured and, above all, calm - but then her father dies and, just as if a stopper has been removed, all sorts of wilder emotions come bubbling forth. This is a brilliant, painful, subtle book about the exhausting, grievous experience of breaking away from family life into a workable adult personality.
