«What I Was» is Meg Rosoff's coming-of-age novel, published by Penguin Books in paperback (224 pages, in English).
A centenarian man named H recalls his sixteen-year-old self, when he was a student at a boarding school on the East Anglia coast in the 1960s. There he meets Finn, a solitary boy who lives on his own in a hut by the sea and follows no one's rules. Fascinated by his freedom, H makes that friendship the center of his life.
«What I Was» is Meg Rosoff's third novel, after How I Live Now and Just in Case. The work was a finalist for the 2008 Carnegie Medal.
The novel is aimed at young readers aged 12 and up and at those who enjoy coming-of-age and friendship stories.
