About This Item
Ballantine Books, First Trade Paperback Edition, 1999, 10th Printing. Near Fine Condition. 8vo. 416 pages. Gently used book. Bright, clean, black and green wrappers, tight glued binding, Pages spotless, toned. A moving and honest look at today's adolescents, with teenager themselves telling their stories. After three years of intensive study of eight teenagers in a typical American town, listening to their stories, their tragedies, observing their rituals, Patrica Hersch found that American teens have fashioned a fully defined culture that adults can neither see nor imagine - a culture of unprecedented freedom and baffling complexity, a culture with rules but no structure, values but no clear morality, codes but no consistency. It seems that adults have pulled away, relinquished their responsibilities, allowing unhealthy behaviors to flourish. A wake-up call. 1999, Ballantine Books.
