Lost childhood. E. Stranout and J. Walls (a set of 2 books)

When the entire possible book of Elizabeth Straut, like its famous Olivia Kitteridge, is a novel about lost childhood. Each story in it is a tense drama, where in the center is a gloomy past and an almost hopeless present. If childhood passed in the home hell, with a father - a rapist, how difficult it will be to live with this secret? Is it possible to forgive a mother, who failed to protect against cruelty? One incorrectly spoken word in childhood can return with a boomerang in the present, causing pain, shame and despair. Secrets that you carefully keep can swim out at any time. In “When everything is possible” all the heroes are dependent on their own past, and the present sets traps. The silver star in a family, far from the traditional idea of ​​education, Jannett Walls, like no one else knows what it feels like in a world, where you have to suffer from the jerk of your own parents. Twelve -year -old bin Holliday and her fifteen -year -old sister Liz fall into a difficult situation: their frivolous mother, trying to make a career as a singer, reaches a nervous breakdown and leaves an indefinite time. In order not to be in the shelter, the girls go to the only relative to Virginia. They begin to get used to a new, relatively calm life, but, alas, they will have another test, perhaps, the worse than all the previous ones.
