Well, this book is disturbing. On many fronts. First, Anais would fit right in as a character in "Infinite Jest". This novel does not let up and is not for the feint of heart. This book is filled with violence and foul language; disturbed teens doing disturbing things to other disturbed teens an...

text “The Panopticon” by Jenni Fagan – disturbing, brutal, honest, intense novel about a Scottish teenage “delinquent” in “care” trying to live as free a life as she can

text In einem Wort: Krass!

*Worum geht's?*Mit gerade einmal fünfzehn Jahren hat Anais Hendricks mehr Straftaten zu verbuchen als so mancher Schwerverbrecher. Sie stiehlt, prügelt, nimmt eine Droge nach der anderen, ist ein böses Mädchen durch und durch. Für ihre Sozialarbeiterin, die Polizisten und die Richter ist schon lange...
