Notes To Future Self

"Sophie and Calliope have never been to school. Their mum ran away from home when she was seventeen to join the New Age movement and the girls were raised in a series of ashrams, communes and impromptu raves. When Sophie gets ill, they return to Birmingham. It's a strange new world where meditation and tree-hugging are replaced with maths homework, TV and the grandmother they have never met. Against this bewildering new backdrop, the normality she's always longed for, Sophie must come to terms with her mortality." -- Back cover.
