Lynne

Lynne is a kinetic story about fifteen-year-old Lynn, whose anxiety over her upcoming GCSEs is compounded by her parents’ constant arguments and her older sister’s pregnancy. She fears failing her exams and disappointing her family.

Lynn also has recurring, cryptic, unsettling and often violent dreams. They frequently feature Lynne, a girl from her school who looks almost exactly like her. As Lynn’s interest in Lynne edges toward obsession, her grasp on reality grows increasingly tenuous. The story follows Lynn’s fears and anxieties as her exams approach.
