What the Birds See
Sonya Hartnett
Hartnett again captures the ineffable fragility of childhood in this keenly observed tale. - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Nine-year-old Adrian watches his world closely, but there is much he cannot understand. He does not, for instance, know why three neighborhood children might set out to buy ice cream one summer’s day and never be seen again…In a suburb that is no longer safe and innocent, in a broken family of self-absorbed souls, Sonya Hartnett sets the story of a lone little boy - unwanted, unloved, and intensely curious - a story as achingly beautiful as it is shattering.
