The seismic events following her sixteenth birthday return with haunting vividness, exposing a story both utterly familiar and desperately strange.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt was the year she first got drunk, the year she first had sex with a boy. She was watched like a hawk by an anxious mother and a silent, distant father. It was a year of typical teenage fixation and typical teenage frivolity, and of all the usual parental fretting. Until something else took hold, and her family made an unspoken decision and a terrible sacrifice. Only now, decades later, can these events come close to being comprehended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eRepetition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, award-winning novelist Vigdis Hjorth explores through fiction the parts of childhood that chime through the decades.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"National Theatre Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55385650463096,"sku":"9781804298947","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0257\/9562\/5032\/files\/9781804298947.jpg?v=1772036072","url":"https:\/\/shop.nationaltheatre.org.uk\/products\/repetition-a-novel","provider":"National Theatre Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
