And Cast Aside Childish Things

By Declan Dixon

"Cut me and I bleed Cymru."

Molly Pritchard has earned her place at university against all the odds - but leaving behind the streets, the Social Club, and the people she loves most is harder than any exam she has ever sat.

Back home in Newport, life goes on: her dad Ron holds court over his legendary fry-up, her mum Trish worries quietly about everything, and her cousin Tracey has an opinion on absolutely everyone. And then there is Owen.

But growing up means more than leaving home. It means learning that love can arrive suddenly and leave even faster. That faith gets tested in ways no prayer seems adequate for. That the people who raise you cannot protect you from everything - and that sometimes, in the wreckage of the life you planned, you have to decide who you are going to become.
