Jacqueline Kennedy once said, "There are many little ways to enlarge your child’s world. Love of books is the best of all."
This statement has since been completely disregarded.
Ellie has always been a troublesome child. Always sneaking out at night to go read books, for god knows what reason, and running around the concrete flatlands of Utopia, life and love seems to have stilled and stopped under the crush of human will.
But one day, while Ellie is reading a battered old copy of 1984, she spots a small watch swept away underneath her chair.
And, as we all know, what self-respecting troublesome child could of left that watch alone?
