Description
Echoland by Per Petterson
A poignant coming-of-age story about the complexities of family life and the struggles of growing up. Twelve-year-old Arvid spends his summer holiday with his grandparents, feeling increasingly awkward as he navigates the challenges of adolescence.
As he explores the coastline and meets a new friend, Mogens, Arvid begins to uncover the secrets and tensions that underlie his family's relationships. With its thoughtful portrayal of childhood summers and unspoken anxieties, Echoland is a beautifully written novel about the complexities of growing up.
