  • Translated from French not sure what the meaning is

    Great book, dealing with French Colonialism, immigration and untamed youth tired of living as the underground of French society. Some of the language is a bit vulgar, and the actions the youth go through are a bit shocking but that is what made this novel intereseting, it talked about life as an Algerian immigrant living in France.

  • Moving & Shocking

    Bought for school; very interesting and moving. Chronicles the life of teens in the banlieue of France and what they must do to survive on a day to day basis.
