Synopsis: Born into a world of abuse, Kevin Lewis has nothing except his determination to someday bring a change to the cycle of poverty in his life.
My Opinion: WOW. I was close to tears so many times, and you really can't help but wish you could have been there for him as a child. So many times, just when you think he's finally made it, someone manages to let him down once more.
I find the way he made it through all this very inspirational, and feel relieved that he did make it.
A story I would definitely read again. ( )

Terrifying and blunt. You see his future mistakes lying like crouching tigers around every corner. You're desperate to reach through the pages and lend a helping hand. Fortunately there are sufficient good guys in the books to stop us slitting our wrists. ( )

I was born on 8 September 1970, so this is not a story from the 'bad old days', this all happened at a time when British society was priding itself on becoming enlightened.
