Résumé
In a string of twelve short stories, the author visits the sometimes dark psyche of the teenage years, exploring the consequences of choices that are made. In "The Sky Blue Ball", a high-school girl is confronted by a haunting memory… of childhood. In "Capricorn", a jealous teen lets her cousin go off alone with a dangerous person, aware of the terrifying possibilities. Some descriptions of sex and violence, and some strong language. Senior high readers and older. 2003.
