<p><b>''A beautiful, strange novel . . . Fascinating and moving, it tells with great tenderness how human love goes wrong'' Ursula K. Le Guin</b><br><b><br>''The recent novel I recommend most . . . a short, disciplined, unsettling book'' Hanya Yanagihara</b><br><br>Thirteen-year-old Caroline and her father live in Forest Park, an enormous nature preserve in Portland, Oregon. Day to day, they live in an elaborate cave shelter, wash in a nearby creek, store perishables at the water''s edge, tend a garden and even keep a library of sorts. Once a week they go to the city to buy groceries and otherwise merge with the civilised world. But one small mistake allows a jogger to discover them, which derails their entire existence.<br><br> Inspired by a true story and told through the startlingly sincere voice of its young narrator, Caroline, <i>My Abandonment</i> is a gripping journey into life in the wilderness and a mesmerizing tale of survival and hope.</p>
