''Rarely has emotional turbulence been so delicately conveyed'' The New York TimesWith delicacy of perception and memory, humour and pathos, Carson McCullers spreads before us the three phases of a weekend crisis in the life of a motherless twelve-year-old girl. Within the span of a few hours, the irresistible, hoydenish Frankie passionately plays out her fantasies at her elder brother''s wedding. Through a perilous skylight we look into the mind of a child torn between her yearning to belong and the urge to run away.
