Futureproof: A Novel (P.S.) por N Frank Daniels
This book is raw, honest, & real. Although sometimes difficult to read because of language, sex, and the heartache you feel for the characters I didn't want to put it down. This book is more fact than fiction, and that is the most sobering thing of all.
this book was a major eye opener for me. not just about drugs, but how you feel about your life in general.
Demonstrates how environment can lead to temptation and how the human soul’s struggle against addiction. Very well written. Left you at times very angry with the characters as they fail again and again to beat their Joneses and move past what obviously is ruining their lives. This so easily can be applied to more subtle addictions that are less criminal but just as life limiting.
Futureproof was originally a self-published success launched on the author's Myspace page.
Lucke attends Peckerbrook High School in Atlanta. A school for artistic kids, Luke is one of the kids bussed in from the seedier part of town. Home life is rough. His stepfather abuses him while his mother stands on the sidelines protecting their other boys. She begs Luke to stop provoking him, but Luke finds it difficult to back down. He joins the drama class at school and for awhile, he can be someone else. The fighting escaltes at home until Luke gets the drop on his step dad and beats him up. Knowing he can no longer stay there, he packs a bag and leaves.
He begins to stay at a friends house and before long finds himself dropping out of school. The deeper he delves into the deliquent subculture of Atlanta, the more friends Luke makes. Friends who share their girls, basements, and drugs with him. Luke begins to self-inflict damage to himself with razor blades while also starting a new job Conflicting situations and emotions run high until they spiral out of control.
Futureproof is a shocking, yet stunning debut. It is told almost like a memoir, yet the author states it is not. Filled with unique characters and a gritty storyline, Futureproof will have you addicted in no time. However, it is not for the faint of heart as it contains vulgar language, drugs, and explicit sex.… (más)
