Sobre aquest llibre
‘I tried to be forgettable. That’s how I survived.’
The shadow girl never imagined she'd live on the streets. After her parents disappear, life with her aunt and uncle takes a sinister turn. Terrified that the authorities will believe her uncle over her, she flees. She tricks her way into a new school and pretends to have a loving family. No one knows she sleeps in rail yards, sand dunes and abandoned houses. At school she meets the author she will call on years later. Together they piece together the story of how she survived, who helped her, and the friend she wishes she could have saved.
Thrilling, profound and blackly funny, The Shadow Girl is John Larkin's best and most important novel to date.
