Look at Me

Lizzy lives with her father, Julian, and her brother, Ig, in North London. Two years ago her mother died, leaving in a trail a family bereft by her absence and a house still filled with her things: for Margaret was lively, beautiful, fun, loving; she kept the family together. So Lizzy thinks. Then, one day, Lizzy finds a letter from a stranger to her father, and discovers he has another child. Lizzy invites her into their world in an act of outraged defiance. Almost immediately, she realises her mistake.

Look at Me is a deft exploration of family, grief, and the delicate balance between moving forward and not quite being able to leave someone behind. It is an acute portrayal of how familial upheaval can cause misunderstanding and madness, damaging those you love most

Lizzy locuieste cu tatal ei, Julian, si fratele ei, Ig, in nordul Londrei. In urma cu doi ani, mama ei a murit, lasand intr-o urma o familie lipsita de absenta ei si o casa inca plina de lucrurile ei: pentru Margaret era plina de viata, frumoasa, distractiva, iubitoare; a tinut familia impreuna.
