Abandoned by his parents, brought up by his loving, strict and clear-sighted grandmother, Elwood is about to enroll in the local black college. But given the time and the place, one innocent mistake is enough to destroy his future, and so Elwood arrives at The Nickel Academy, which claims to provide 'physical, intellectual and moral training' which will equip its inmates to become 'honorable and honest men'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn reality, the Nickel Academy is a chamber of horrors, where physical, emotional and sexual abuse is rife, where corrupt officials and tradesmen do a brisk trade in supplies intended for the school, and where any boy who resists is likely to disappear 'out back'. Stunned to find himself in this vicious environment, Elwood tries to hold on to Dr King's ringing assertion, 'Throw us in jail, and we will still love you.' But Elwood's fellow inmate and new friend Turner thinks Elwood is naive and worse; the world is crooked, and the only way to survive is to emulate the cruelty and cynicism of their oppressors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe tension between Elwood's idealism and Turner's skepticism leads to a decision which will have decades-long repercussions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBased on the history of a real reform school in Florida that operated for one hundred and eleven years and warped and destroyed the lives of thousands of children, The Nickel Boys is a devastating, driven narrative by a great American novelist whose work is essential to understanding the current reality of the United States. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHitta fler liknande böcker i dessa kategorier:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--secondary\" onclick=\"window.location.href='https:\/\/bok.hstrom.se\/pages\/skonlitteratur'\"\u003eSkönlitteratur\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--secondary\" onclick=\"window.location.href='https:\/\/bok.hstrom.se\/collections\/skonlitteratur-prosa'\"\u003eProsa\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--full-width \" onclick=\"window.location.href='\/search?q=title:Whitehead%2BColson%2BThe%2BNickel%2BBoys'\"\u003eSök fler exemplar av denna bok\u003c\/button\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 0 20px 0 20px; border: thin solid #000000;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller; font-weight:bold;\"\u003eAnvänd gärna länkarna nedan för att hitta liknande böcker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFörfattare:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=title:Whitehead+Colson\"\u003eWhitehead, Colson\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTitel:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=title:The+Nickel+Boys\"\u003eThe Nickel Boys\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFörlag:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=vendor:Little+Brown\"\u003eLittle Brown\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGenre:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Utl%C3%A4ndska+ber%C3%A4ttare\"\u003eUtländska berättare\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eArtikelnr:\u003c\/b\u003e 10448222\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003eLäst denna bok och vill hjälpa oss att förstå..? \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/antikvariat.hstrom.se\/enkat\/10448222\u0026amp;entry.1763550384=Whitehead,%20Colson\u0026amp;entry.1968095487=The%20Nickel%20Boys\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDelta i vår enkät om denna bok, klicka...\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Little Brown","offers":[{"title":"Förlagsny bok \/ Pocket","offer_id":44003948167435,"sku":"10448222","price":200.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/8856\/1163\/files\/10448222_7e1afbbc-869c-4fc6-98b5-056936d960b4.jpg?v=1703169477","url":"https:\/\/bok.hstrom.se\/products\/10448222","provider":"bok.hstrom.se | Antikvariat \u0026 Bokhandel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
