Смерть сердца by Elizabeth Bowen
A sensitive sixteen-year-old orphan is taken into the household of relatives in London and, by virtue of her blunt honesty and naive moral clarity, becomes an involuntary catalyst who exposes the small cruelties, hypocrisies and emotional paralysis of their social circle; her frankness provokes misunderstanding, betrayal and humiliation, and the narrative quietly dissects loneliness, loss of innocence and the fragile architecture of adult relationships in interwar England.
