Krátky popis
Katherine Millar is eighteen and desperate to be less fat, less
swotty and to have cooler friends. But most of all she wishes she
had two parents, instead of one grandma, Poll. Poll is pushing
seventy, half blind and utterly poisonous. She has looked after
Katherine since she was a baby, when her father was killed in a car
crash and her mother vanished. Poll's ambition is for things to
stay exactly the same for ever, and for Katherine never to leave
their pit village of Bank Top. Katherine has other ideas, and she
can feel change is coming, the omens are all around her. In the
meantime, she cleans up after Poll, revises for her exams, watches
daytime television and surfs the net at the library trying to find
out how to be bulimic. What she doesn't quite realize yet is that
life won't always wait for you to catch up with it. ",Swallowing
Grandma", is a perceptive, vivid and painfully funny novel about
the ties of love and loathing, and the ways in which our versions
of the past can thwart our visions for the future. In ",Katherine
and Poll",, Kate Long has created two unforgettable characters
locked in an epic battle over whose side of the story will prevail.
",Wise, warm and witty... Will keep you reading until the very last
page.", - ",Red",, Book of the Month.
