The Girl Giant

Read The Girl Giant Storyline:

“Something good can come from even the most terrifying things. For eve y thing that is taken away, something else is given.” Ruth
Brennan is a giant, “a rare, organic blunder pressed into a dollhouse
world,” as she calls herself. Growing up in a small town, where even an
ordinary person can’t simply fade into the background, there is no
hiding the fact that Ruth is different: she can see it in the eyes of
everyone around her, even her own parents. James and Elspeth Brennan are
emotionally at sea, struggling with the devastation wrought on their
lives by World War II and with their unspoken terror that the daughter
they love may, like so much else, one day be taken away from them. But
fate works in strange ways, and Ruth finds that for all the things that
go unsaid around her, she is nonetheless able to see deeply into the
secret hearts of others—their past traumas, their present fears, and the
people they might become, if only they have courage enough.
