Pressezitat
“Gr. 10-12. Rapp’s latest novel opens as 11-year-old Blacky Brown runs from his mother’s boyfriend, who has sexually abused him. Blacky is examined at the hospital, then released to his impoverished, single mother, who leaves Blacky to face the ramification of the incident on his own. His drug-addled older sister and remote younger brother are no help, and when Blacky tells his only friend, he’s rejected, the whole school finds out, and vicious bullies harass him. He finds solidarity with the other school freak, a girl whose friendship sustains him. But as the disturbing open ending shows, that’s not enough to shield him from his own self-loathing and the cruelty and neglect of others. Rapp creates a powerful voice in Blacky, whose honest, raw account shows desperate struggles just to keep breathing and moving: ‘My legs are ok, I tell myself. My legs are good.’ ” —BooklistKommentar zu "Little Chicago"
