Sobre este título
Maggie O'Farrell
'A sparky, funny work of genius and one of the best least-known novels of the 20th Century'
Ali Smith
'Funny, surprising, exquisitely written and brilliant on the smelly, absurd, harsh business of growing up'
David Nicholls
'A wonderful oddity - brief, vivid, eccentric, written with ferocious zest and black humour'
Penelope Lively
At the bottom of a great stone staircase, dressed in her mother's black lace evening dress, twisted in murderous death, lies Janet. So end the sixteen years of Janet's short life.
A life spent in a draughty Scottish castle, where roses will not grow, and a jackdaw decides to live in the doll's house.
A life peopled by prettier, smoother-haired siblings, a Nanny with a face like the North Sea and the peculiar, whisky-swigging Cousin Lila.
A life where Janet is perpetually misunderstood - and must turn from people, to animals, to books, to her own wild and wonderful imagination.
