Lili and her sister Pearl encounter all the triumphs and cruelties of teenage life when they move to a boring suburb and they search for new friends. Drechsler's style is always arresting and surprisingly revealing. Her dialogue rings out with the subtlety and candor of teenage voices raised in anger, mockery and joy. 9781896597379 ISBN 1896597378.
