Description

Caddie's life has become a series of rules to cope with her surroundings. When her parents split up, she develops a mantra: "Don't touch." She believes that if she keeps from touching another person's skin, her father will come home. This magical thinking is Caddie's way of dealing with the chaos in her life. As she navigates school and friendships, Caddie's compulsions become harder to hide. Her drama class is a particular challenge, especially when it comes to interacting with her scene partners. Despite her desire to play Ophelia, Caddie must confront the risk of touching Peter, who is auditioning for the role of Hamlet. A powerful and moving debut novel, Don't Touch explores the complexities of friendship and love in a way that is both poignant and relatable.
