The author of "Be More Chill" takes a poignant look at teenage depression in this remarkably moving and authentic picture of the physicality, the despair, and even the hilarity of depression., Like many ambitious New York City teenagers, Craig Gilner sees entry into Manhattan?'s Executive Pre-Professional High School as the ticket to his future. Determined to succeed at life'which means getting into the right high school to get into the right college to get the right job?Craig studies night and day to ace the entrance exam, and does. & That?'s when things start to get crazy. At his new school, Craig realizes that he isn't brilliant compared to the other kids; he?'s just average, and maybe not even that. He soon sees his once-perfect future crumbling away.& The stress becomes unbearable and Craig stops eating and sleeping'until, one night, he nearly kills himself. Craig?'s suicidal episode gets him checked into a mental hospital, where his new neighbors include a transsexual sex addict, a girl who has scarred her own face with scissors, and the self-elected President Armelio.& There, isolated from the crushing pressures of school and friends, Craig is finally able to confront the sources of his anxiety.

- o***z (10)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufMy idea of “good” may have differed from the seller’s, but that’s on me, not them! I got exactly what was advertised and it does meet my needs, so I got value for my money. The seller reached out to me to make sure that I was good with my purchase. They offered a couple of solutions to make it right for me and promptly carried out what we agreed on. They didn’t ask me for a quid pro quo arrangement, they just wanted to ensure that I was happy. I’d definitely do business with them again!Antwort von textbooks_source- Verkäufer textbooks_source hat auf Bewertung reagiert.- Verkäufer textbooks_source hat auf Bewertung reagiert.We are very sorry for the inconvenience!
