Bøger af Lauren Kessler

"Straight from the trenches, a mom's tale of weathering her daughter's transformation from sweetheart to snark mouth." - PeopleWith the eye of a reporter, the curiosity of an anthropologist, and the open-and sometimes wounded-heart of a mother, award-winning author Lauren Kessler launches an eighteen-month mission, embedding herself in her about-to-be-teenage daughter Lizzie's life. Everywhere from middle school classrooms to the mall, from summer camp to online chat groups, Kessler observes and chronicles-and sometimes participates in-the vibrant, dynamic, and scary life of a twenty-first-century teen.

Includes reading group guide discussion questions and a conversation with the author.

Over the course of three years, award-winning author Lauren Kessler helped men facing life in prison confront the reality of spending the rest of their lives behind bars through writing workshops and brings her experience and some of their most powerful stories to light in A Grip of Time: When Prison is Your Life.
