Description:Cecelia, thirteen, lives with her father in a working-class suburb of Detroit. Her life is a quiet cycle of solitary domestic rituals and lonely social occasions. This routine is enlivened only by her fascination with Lolly, a television talk-show she believes allows her glimpses into the larger world beyond her own. After another girl in her neighborhood mysteriously vanishes, the texture of Cecelia's daily life is altered as she joins tentatively with the community's halting efforts to deal with the loss. When a letter from Cecelia about the lost girl prompts Lolly's show to come to town, Cecelia must confront her own role in the conversion of her schoolmate's disappearance into a media event. In The Lost Girl, James Morrison finds a compelling lens through the eyes of a young person trying to understand the world and her place in it. In stylized prose both elegant and spare, saturated with irony but fraught with tenderness, Morrison raises questions about modern life that become more pressing by the day.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
