Fiction
Sixteen, Sixty-one is the powerful and shocking true story
of an illicit intergenerational affair, in the vein of Nikki
Gemmell and Lynn Barber. Natalie Lucas was just 16 when she began a close
relationship with an older family friend. Matthew opened
Natalie’s mind and heart to philosophy, literature and art.
Within months they had begun an intense, erotic affair
disguised as an innocent intergenerational friendship. They
mocked their small town’s busybodies, laughing at plebs like
her parents and his in-laws, all of whom were too blinkered
to look beyond the shadows on the wall of Plato’s cave. They
alone danced in the sunshine outside. Or so Nat believed until she decided to try living a normal
life. Written with striking candor and a remarkable lack of
sentimentally, SIXTEEN, SIXTY-ONE is more than an account of
illicit romance; it is the gripping story of a young girl’s
sexual awakening and journey into womanhood.
