This striking novel deals with the disturbing fracture of one teenage girl from the world around her. A kind of madness is made all the more powerful by being recounted in the girl's own voice, preserving integrity while increasingly cut off and shut out from other people. The therapy of the last section is tough too, but the final sensation is of one fragile human being carving out her own truths and making her way back to relationships.
