Poor Portia. Poor everyone.In real life I'm rarely this sympathetic to horrible people. Maybe I should be.
Portia, 16 year old orphan, moves to stay with her adult half-brother and his wife. She's on the cusp of adulthood, but very naïve. Almost everyone is cold and detached. Mostly written as a novel, but with sections of diary and several letters - a contrast that feels a little odd.
