Publisher's Synopsis
Having flunked her exams, nineteen-year-old Luisa McKenzie finds herself back at school - this time working as a classroom assistant, sitting on the outside of the 'Home Corner' in a class full of five-year-olds. A chance encounter one afternoon with Stella, a former school friend who has gone on to greater things, wakes Luisa up to her disappointments, and her hold on reality slowly begins to unravel... Funny and full of insight, THE HOME CORNER looks at the way we create our own identities in the light of other people's, and queries the distinctions that are made between the real and the imagined.
