Lee Flora is an intelligent, observant fourteen-year old when she leaves her family behind in Indiana to attend the prestigious Ault School in Massachusetts. Over the next four years, her experience at Ault--complicated relationships with teachers, intense friendships with other girls, an all-consuming preoccupation with classmate who is less than a boyfriend and more than a crush--coalesce into a singular portrait of the universal pains and thrills of adolescence.
