description: Sylvia Fraser’s brash and audacious first novel, Pandora, sweeps the reader back to the poignant, too-forgotten world of early childhood so rarely recorded in modern fiction. In the character of seven-year-old Pandora Gothic, Fraser has created a fierce and resilient heroine who mirrors the pleasure and agonies of children everywhere.As an affectionate and accurate portrait of the hopes, fears, dreams, and tribulations that prefigure adulthood, Pandora is a novel of astonishing literary achievement and sheer unceasing delight.
