Sarah Crossan's exquisite debut novel explores first love, friendship and quiet courage. It will leave you sad, happy and wanting more.
Sometimes I want to tear off my clothes
And show them I'm the same
Underneath –
Maybe better.
Life is lonely for Kasienka. She misses her old home in Poland, her mother's heart is breaking, and at her new English school friends are scarce. But when someone new swims into her life, Kasienka learns that there is more than one way to stay afloat.
This stunning novel from Carnegie Medal winner Sarah Crossan explores how to pick up the pieces when everything you know is turned on its head and you have to start all over again.

批評家のレビュー
Poignant, powerful, just perfect
Succinct, with a gentle lyricism, the poems are telling about immigration, prejudice, self-delusion, families and first love, on the way to a life-changing conclusion
This poetic novel is sheer perfection - for adults as well as for teenagers. Being in Kasienka's head, the reader gains a new understanding of how alienation feels. I loved it
This is a unique and compelling read with sharp observations of human behaviour as Kasienka goes on a journey of discovery, encountering bullying and first love while trying to fit into a new life. Written in a unique poetic style that is at times humorous and often deeply moving
You’ve entered the young Polish girl’s voice with a heartfelt conviction. I felt like I was watching a movie of her life in present time and at the same sharing in what’s happening inside her head. What I especially like is that nothing is overstated, but there are so many pregnant issues there – prejudice, migration, language bias – but what’s so disarming and charming is the way the girl reveals her inner self with a poetic and resonant simplicity
