Professional Reviews
|
| : |
Washington Post Book World: "The best passages in the novel depict Slam's uneven effort to control his anger and to refrain from the self-destructive behavior that could ruin his future as a student and an athlete. Myers also writes with offhand insight about the racial attitudes that inform the relationship between Slam and his new schoolmates, most of whom are white." |
