out to help her, he soon finds she has much to teach him, setting him on his own
journey to self discovery and healing. Consider The Lilies is the

Amazon customer review © Gives lots of insight into
homelessness, mental health and feral life. A positive and interesting read.
Well written with innovative use of language from a writer who obviously knows
her subject.
Amazon customer review © This is a story that will
really stay in your mind. It's bold and challenging, experimenting with language
and layout but at the same time it's an intensely gripping read. Carol Fenlon
really cares about Vicky, the half-wild child raised in a shed, and her
protector Jack, who can never come to terms with his own past.
