An Angel at My Table

A gifted teenager's life takes an unexpected turn when misdiagnosed with schizophrenia, leading her to embark on a journey of self-discovery in Europe, where her writing talents earn international recognition.

Janet Frame's life story unfolds in 1920s and 1930s New Zealand, where she was born into a large, impoverished family with many siblings. As a young girl, Frame's unique nature set her apart from her peers. Despite receiving a teacher's education, she was institutionalized for eight years due to her perceived abnormality. However, Frame's writing career eventually flourished, earning her literary success.
