(2) 4-6 A novel of a contemporary girl who experiences the Great Plague of London in 1665 presents a horrifying picture of one of the greatest epidemics known in historic times. Although powerful descriptions of both the repulsive disease and the measures taken to deal with it are the novel's strongest feature, the story is also well written, and Emily is a strong-minded, likable heroine.
