CHILDHOOD ANGST EFFECTIVELY CAPTURED

This is a writer who remembers childhood. Her description of the 10 year's fears and isolation due to a bout of scarlet fever was sensitively captured. The angst of adolescence taps a reader's dormant emotions. However, it is the loneliness of the protagonist that is the true story. This writer made it almost palpable. Anyone who has ever been lonely will find the emotions jump off the page.
