    Min mor kaldte alt og alle, der så ud til at være alene, for strejfere. Der var både strejfende mennesker, strejfende hunde, strejfende kugler og strejfende sommerfugle. Fjortenårige Pearl bor på forsædet af en gammel bil. Hendes mor Margot bor på bagsædet. Sammen overlever de på en kost bestående af Cheerios og insektspray, kærlighedssange og stjålne cigaretter. Livet i udkanten af en trailerpark i Florida er råt nok, som det er, men da pastor Rex sætter gang i sit Giv-Gud-Dine-Våben-initiativ, og Eli Redmond kommer til byen, vendes Pearls liv på hovedet. Eli begynder at besøge moderen på bagsædet, og Pearl tvinges ud i verdenen på den anden side af kølerhjelmen.Halvfems huller i himlen er en fortælling om familie, sammenhold og vold fortalt fra en klarsynet teenagers perspektiv. Igennem Pearls øjne blotlægges Amerikas brutale kærlighedsaffære med håndvåben og dens smertefulde konsekvenser. "Fremragende." The Guardian "Fuld af sorg og øm sødme ... Et glimt af mennesker, der hver dag synker i til knæene i vores våbenkulturs giftige spild. De er måske Amerikas glemte børn, men efter at have læst denne roman, vil du ikke kunne glemme dem." The Washington Post

    Jennifer Clement grew up in 1960s Mexico City living next door to Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera. It was a bohemian childhood alongside artists, communists, revolutionaries and poets, one that, thanks to her markedly absent parents, allowed an awakening of a creative freedom and curiosity about the world. Passionate about dance, Clement left behind the revolutions in Latin America and took up a place at dance school in New York City in 1981. She quickly becomes a fixture in the art scene of the early 80s inhabiting the world of Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Colette Lumiere, and William Burroughs, among others, and frequenting The Mudd Club, Danceteria and Studio 54. From the author of Widow Basquiat, this memoir recreates the fury, ecstasy and danger that made ?70s Mexico City and 80's New York two of the greatest places to be living, young and free.
