The book offers a coming-of-age narrative centered around the experiences of a young girl named Keetje as she navigates her childhood and adolescence in a bustling urban environment. Through her eyes, the reader is introduced to the struggles and joys of growing up, marked by observations of her family dynamics, social interactions, and her longing for affection. The opening of the story unfolds in a series of vignettes that capture Keetje’s early memories, starting from the age of four. Each vignette recounts a formative experience, such as facing the harshness of childhood injustices, her complex emotions towards family and peers, and her burgeoning awareness of social class differences and femininity. As she encounters both the warmth and coldness of her surroundings, Keetje's rich inner life brims with questions and dedications, setting the stage for her transformation as she grows older. The beginning establishes a poignant tone, revealing Keetje's poignant longing for connection in a world that often feels isolating and unkind.
