Fantastic
11 April 2001
By Toby Sanders
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
This is a good book for anyone who enjoyed "The Year They Burned the Books." The few similarities in the plot aside, "We're Not Alone expands both the roles of the young people and the roles of the adult characters. The young people show how to stand up to injustice responsibly. The adults, alternately, show how to support the young people in their lives and how to be the unwitting source of injustice and pain, psychological and physical.
Rik Isensee illustrates very well in this book how even the best of families can be dysfunctional for a gay or lesbian youth.
I just wish the book was easier to get. It should be on every library shelf and in every bookstore in the country.
