| Abstract: | In the list of life's most stressful events, family break-ups and moving home are way up there in the top ten, and one often follows the other, compounding the trauma. This is the situation for eleven-year-old Rain in Catherine Bateson's "Rain May and Captain Daniel", when her mother, Maggie, sells their inner-city house in the aftermath of divorce. Far from wanting to escape executive stress, Anna, the single mother in Melissa Lucashenko's "Too Flash", welcomes new responsibilities as she climbs the bureaucratic ladder. |
