Book Description
A compelling, brilliantly-received debut from a moving, nostalgic and truly authentic new voice
From the Back Cover
A Waterstone's New Voice 2009
An Amazon Rising Star 2009
Gwenni Morgan is not like any other girl in her small Welsh town. Inquisitive, bookish and full of spirit, she can
fly in her sleep and loves playing detective. So when a neighbour mysteriously vanishes, and no one seems to
be asking the right questions, Gwenni decides to conduct her own investigation.
Mari Strachan's unforgettable novel was one of the most acclaimed and successful debuts of 2009. It is a heartbreaking and hugely enjoyable book.
'Strachan eschews whimsy for reality in a beautifully written story about growing up.'
Independent on Sunday
'A delight.'
Financial Times
'Extremely compelling . . . I loved this novel.'
Catherine O'Flynn, author of What Was Lost
'A warm and touching, but blessedly unsentimental, novel.'

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 'Has our family got secrets?' 'Every family has, Gwenni. Big secrets, small secrets, silly secrets, bad things we want to hide . . . ' Young Gwenni Morgan has a gift. She can fly in her sleep. She's also fond of strawberry whip, detective stories and asking difficult questions. When a neighbour mysteriously vanishes, she resolves to uncover the secret of his disappearance and return him to his children. She truthfully records what she sees and hears: but are her deductions correct? What is the real truth? And what will be the consequences - for Gwenni, her family and her community - of finding it out? Gwenni Morgan is an unforgettable creation, and this portrait of life in a small Welsh town on the brink of change in the 1950s is enthralling, moving and utterly real. Mari Strachan's debut is a magical novel that will transport you to another time and place. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001339956
