Produktbeschreibung
Fleur is a tender, bittersweet coming-of-age novel about the quietest member of a loud and chaotic family. Fleurette Bradley has always been the afterthought-small, shy, and overlooked. In a household dominated by dazzling personalities-a glamorous mother clinging to past fame, and a fiery sister battling her own demons-Fleurette survives by staying out of the way. But invisibility comes at a cost. Fleurette is defined by what she lacks: presence, ambition, her mother's approval. Yet beneath her silence lies a deep emotional intelligence and a quiet resilience. As she silently bears witness to her family's unraveling, Fleurette begins a slow, aching transformation-from supporting character to the author of her own life. Set in the faded town of Wakenhill, Fleur explores the crushing weight of legacy, the quiet strength of the overlooked child, and the deep hunger to be seen. In the end, Fleurette doesn't just survive her story-she rewrites it. And in doing so, she discovers her voice was never small at all. Perfect for readers of literary fiction who are drawn to stories about finding one's identity against the odds.
