Knowledgeable about culture and the arts, she only has one friend and a cat for company. Meanwhile, several floors above her lodge twelve year-old Paloma Josse is determined to avoid the pampered future her family has planned for her - by any means possible. The sudden death of a neighbour dramatically alters both their lives forever. Written in a profound and informative way, this novel is a must for any fans of philosophical fiction.
