1950. Kate is 13. While her classmates gossip about boys and dream of the dance on Friday, Kate has her eyes on the stars. A science prodigy with ideas light years ahead of the curriculum, Kate rejects schoolwork and the company of her peers in favour of her own thoughts. Her school, baffled by her non-conformity and disrespect to teachers, exclude her. As Kate's spark is gradually extinguished, her brother William emerges as one of the most celebrated writers of his generation.
The Little Years is the story of the trail of possibilities life leaves in its wake, and the way our lives are touched by others. It is both hauntingly beautiful and refreshingly funny.
