It is not necessarily a complete disaster, she tells herself. I'm okay, she tells herself. Soon the thing inside her is the size of a plum. 'Little Plum,' she says, 'Little Plum, I love you.' And she wants to love it, the little plum. It's just that she can't yet think of it as what it is becoming- a baby, and not just a fruity morsel. Coral is tapping and shrugging more than usual. She is trying to stop the creature in her head from taking hold. Coral might not be okay-or she might be seeing more clearly than anyone." -- Back cover.Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
