Unusually this is a Girls Own story about a working class family. There’s no boarding school or genteel poverty here’s, it’s hard knocks and hand to mouth. All of which makes it very interesting and well worth reading.

Se oli yllättävän hyvä mutta turhan ohut. Vai onko niin että englanninkielisessä teoksessa on ollut oikeasti 160 sivua kun taas tässä suomenkielisessä on oikeasti 138. Oli miten oli, luettu on ja tykkäsin kyllä.
