A captivating novel that explores the complexities of social conventions and the desperate yearning for acceptance An astonishing first novel...uncannily beautiful. --The New York Times Book Review
On the privileged island community where Forgetting Elena takes place, manners are everything. Or so it seems to White's excruciatingly self-conscious young narrator who desperately wants to be accepted in this world where everything from one's bathroom habits to the composition of spontaneous poetry is subject to rigid conventions.
