Very real and very heartbreaking. Interesting to read about a traumatic childhood from a sociologic perspective, some interesting insights. The author went through so much, and does a very good job articulating how he may have felt. His words are clearly his weapons.

Le sujet du livre est intéressant, c'est un peu le miroir social de la pauvreté et le portrait d'un jeune garçon qui lutte avec son identité, mais c'est vraiment dur à lire (j'ai sauté quelques paragraphes parce que les faits racontés étaient trop insoutenables pour moi => lisez les trigger warning avant de commencer ce livre)
