'A coming-of-age story of a spontaneous heroine who finds herself ensconced in the rigidity of a turn-of-the-century boarding school. The clever and highly imaginative Laura has difficulty fitting in with her wealthy classmates and begins to compromise her ideals in her search for popularity and acceptance.'

Approaches to Literature' is the first topic in the English and Creative Writing list of offerings at Flinders University, and introduces students to the study of literature at university level. It aims to enrich the study of literature by encouraging students to develop thoughtful interpretative skills about a range of literary works from across the ages. In this topic students will study the 'seven basic plots' of literature, and explore the relation between literature and its historical and cultural contexts. 'Approaches to Literature' is the launching pad for both the Literature and Creative Writing majors.
