Catherine isn't sure who she is. The hardworking student? The
dutiful daughter? Or someone else entirely? Catherine, Cat, Cath -
which is the real person? A gripping study of teenage pressure and
identity. Catherine is a typical A-grade student from a middle
class, high-achieving family, who suddenly, on entering the sixth
form, loses her way. She stumbles from one situation to another,
unable to work and turning to alcohol to take her mind off her
problems. As she searches for answers through the varied and
offbeat characters she meets, she learns a great many truths about
life. Can she cope with the biggest truth of all - her own
personality? Written in the first person, each chapter is addressed
to someone different in Catherine's life - her mother, a teacher, a
schoolfriend etc, and reflects how Catherine is different to
different people. It brilliantly reflects the pressures on young
people today in a world where they haven't got the time to grow up
at their own pace. Is the face we present to the world our true
self, or a carefully maintained construct?
