After spending several years working in group homes for abused and emotionally disturbed children, the author spent over two years traveling in Southeast Asia, where he wrote this book. It is a work of fiction that tackles child abuse and group homes; a collection of short pieces expertly woven together by interconnected threads. The book is a disturbing and graphic look at what we do to ourselves and to each other, a blurring of the line between abuser and victim, and a glimpse into minds and realities we'd rather not see. The author's brutally honest writing style deals with sex and abuse with a candor and bluntness.
