We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves
Rosemary is now an only child, but she used to have a sister the same age as her,
and an older brother. Both are now gone - vanished from her life. There's something
unique about Rosemary's sister, Fern. And it was this decision, made by her parents,
to give Rosemary a sister like no other, that began all of Rosemary's trouble. So
now she's telling her story: full of hilarious asides and brilliantly spiky lines,
it's a looping narrative that begins towards the end, and then goes back to the beginning.
Twice.
