Delphine de Vigan: No And Me

All my life I #39;ve felt on the outside wherever I am, out of the picture, the conversation, at one remove, as though I was the only one able to hear the sounds or words that others can #39;t and deaf to the words that they seem to hear. As if I #39;m outside the frame, on the other side of a huge, invisible window. But yesterday when I was there with her, I #39;m certain that you could have drawn a circle around us, a circle I wasn #39;t excluded from, which enclosed us, and for a few minutes, protected us from the world. #34; At thirteen-years-old, with an unusually high IQ and a knack for observing things about other people, Lou Bertignac is not only the youngest in her class at school; she is also the most unusual. Painfully shy, she has few friends, save for Lucas, whose company helps her get through each day. At home, Lou #39;s life is also difficult: Her mother hasn #39;t left the house in years and her father spends his days crying in the bathroom. Lou #39;s world is dark and sad... That is, until she meets No. No is a teenage girl that Lou befriends for the purpose of her school project on homelessness. Despite the different worlds that these two girls come from, a friendship is soon forged between them. Unable to bear the thought of No not having a home or a family to keep her safe, Lou persuades her reluctant parents into letting her new friend stay with the Bertignac family. No #39;s addition to the household forces Lou and her parents to face the sadness that has been enveloping them for so long — but not without some disruptions along the way.
