As she writes, Mina makes discoveries both trivial and profound about herself and her world, her thoughts and her dreams. The beautiful and haunting novel that launched David Almond as one of the best. Mina has proclaimed in the past that she will use it as a journal, and one night, at last, she begins to do just that. It has been there for what seems like forever. This is when Mina feels that anything is possible and her imagination is set free.Ī blank notebook lies on the table. In the stillness, she can even hear her own heart beating.
While everyone else is in a deep slumber, she gazes out the window, witness to the moon's silvery light. My Name is Mina is not only a pleasure to read, it is an intimate and enlightening look at a character whose open mind and heart have much to teach us about life, love, and the mysteries that surround us. I keep on saying that Ill write a journal. She is inquisitive, a young girl who asks questions about the world which seem a bit out of place coming from someone so young. She is a free spirit who has a favorite tree which she climbs to watch the world and write in her journal.
