Description
Escaping from their burdensome poverty, twin brothers Adriaan and Alexander’s family emigrates from Belgium to New York City. Unfortunately, things don’t go according to plan, and Adriaan is the only one who eventually arrives in America. Alone in the city, he becomes overwhelmed and grows homesick. But before he can prepare for his trip back, he finds a reason to stay—an American boy named Jack. Powerful and strikingly honest in its portrayal of adolescent homosexuality, this is an show more engaging example of how some accidents can happen for the best. show lessTags

Ein wunderbarer Roman - selten hat mich eine Geschichte so gefesselt wie diese. Gefühle, Charaktere und Schauplätze waren in einer Weise beschrieben, die mich bis jetzt noch nicht losgelassen hat. Auch die Liebesgeschichte entwickelt sich so selbstverständlich ohne dabei erzwungen zu wirken. Dieses Buch ist auf jeden Fall weiter zu empfehlen.
