«December» is the contemporary fiction novel by Elizabeth H. Winthrop, published by Hodder & Stoughton in paperback (384 pages, in English).
In December, eleven-year-old Isabelle has not spoken for nine months. Her mother stopped working to care for her; the psychiatrists gave up and the school will not take her back. The parents fear she is beyond repair and wonder if they are to blame. Isabelle appears as a bright girl who needs help, but she is too frightened to ask for it.
The novel falls within psychological fiction and is set in New England, with the parent-child relationship as its central theme. Published in 2008.
For readers of contemporary fiction and family drama, and for book clubs interested in portraits of family crises.
