✦ Synopsis
Escrita l'any 1946, Frankie Addams és una de les cinc novel·les de la magistral escriptora nord-americana Carson McCullers. La novel·la explora amb mestria la depressió i l'angoixa d'una adolescent solitària i somiadora que no acaba d'encaixar amb el món que l'envolta. No té amics al petit poble on viu, és òrfena de mare i té una relació distant amb el seu pare, una figura freda i poc comprensiva. Al llarg del dia que es casa el seu germà, la Frankie, farta de la monotonia de la seva pròpia vida, s'embranca en una odissea personal amb els seus dos companys més propers, la criada negra, Berenice, i el seu cosí de sis anys, John Henry. Convertida en un clàssic contemporani imprescindible, Frankie Addams és una novel·la excel·lent que retrata amb profunda sensibilitat la insatisfacció vital i l'avorriment crònic propis de l'adolescència.
