| Description: |
|
The nail biters, thumb suckers and teeth griders at the Box Canyon Boys camp were called the Bedwetters. They were the cast-away offspring of parents who were busy traveling, being divorced, remarrying and garnering fortunes. They were rejects...
Until Cotton, Cotton pulled them together, Cotton led them on that fantastic mission to strike one final blow in the desperate battle to save themselves.
This haunting novel is eloquent testimony that all lost children are not born in ghettoes. Cruel in its clarity, touching in its portrayal of the inner and outer realities of adolescence, BLESS THE BEASTS AND CHILDREN is a profoundly moving book. |
