Summary
A story of sacrifice, violence and growing up different–told against the heat and claustrophobia of a seaside city in summer.
After Matthew’s grandfather dies suddenly, four friends struggle to face the trauma of their pasts in the wake of this fresh tragedy. Leah and Jay, a couple since their school days, find their relationship tested, while Nathan deals with a vast and unrequited love and Matthew grapples with his sexuality. In the days that follow, Matthew begins to unearth his grandfather’s past. He finds a different life, full of secrets, and discovers that he and his grandfather may have had more in common than he once thought.
Little Boxes is a coming-of-age story about friendship and love, loss and survival.
Critic reviews
"Cecilia Knapp is a rare, rare talent. The sort of writer you get excited to have found and then look forward to devouring more of their work. This book in particular is a work of craft, heart and beauty, and I envy new readers their first opportunity to meet these characters and spend time in this world." (Kerry Hudson)
"Cecilia Knapp is a great writer. I love her." (Kae Tempest)
"Little Boxes is a powerful, vivid and enchanting debut." (Salena Godden)
