Product Description
Neglected twelve-year-old Emily befriends Max, a middle-aged scientist who encourages her to pursue her intellectual interests. But this innocent friendship will expose both to scandal, suburban snobbery, and psychological torment. Sharply observed, bitter and humorous, this is a powerful novel about a loved-starved child—and about trial by mob.
