June and her father stared for a moment into each other's minds. He looked away first; and with a stab of joy June knew he was afraid of her and that she hated him.
In Other People, June, our fifteen-year-old protagonist, has come to the end of the school year, and the summer looms large. Protected from the world by her devoted mother, she is content and completely self-absorbed. Her biggest concern is where she will be holidaying this year. When June's father reappears after twelve years in Australia, she is thrust abruptly into a different life: new house, town, school. She soon suspects that she does not know the full story about her father, and when she meets Tony Townsend, he and his London life suddenly promise a glamorous and alluring alternative.
Other People is a compelling coming-of-age novel, told with Dale's trademark wit, observation and canny dissemination of relationships.
