Synopsis

A painful and strong depiction of a young girl's first unreciprocated love. The first-person narrator is desperate to make the boy she loves love her back. Her insistence scares him off and she develops an obsession. But can you make someone love you, when you don't love yourself?

The book is stunningly illustrated by the award-winning Danish artist, Anna Jacobina Jacobsen.
