Like Rabbits - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Five-year-old Lily lives in a hutch-like flat in a high-rise with her single mother, Donna, a student, and her grandfather, Jim, who breeds rabbits. Lily's mind is a stew. She worries about the corridors outside her home, the crazy-on-drugs men, ghosts, aliens and her Grandad's poorly ticker, and at times of great stress, she wants to be a rabbit. One Saturday she and Jim go to a rabbit show and Lily narrates the day's events, unconsciously weaving into its routine family stories and memories, as she tries to get to grips with her world. But the unpredictable behaviour of adults, their secrets and promises and rules, continually defeat her and as the day progresses it becomes apparent that even her Grandad, the person with whom she feels safest, might let her down.
