Fiction Family Life

"If ever there was anything colder or more beautiful than a German winter I have yet to experience it. But when I was a girl of only ten, I could hardly understand that I should appreciate such loveliness with my whole heart, because, rest assured, things would get worse for me.

The Kingdom of Childhood is the story of a boy and a woman: sixteen-year-old Zach Patterson, uprooted and struggling to reconcile his knowledge of his mother’s extramarital affair, and Judy McFarland, a kindergarten teacher watching her family unravel before her eyes. Thrown together to organize a fundraiser for their failing private school and bonded by loneliness, they begin an affair that at first thrills, then corrupts each of them. Judy sees in Zach the elements of a young man she loved as a child, but what Zach does not realize is that their relationship is—for Judy—only the latest in a lifetime of disturbing secrets. "
