Brutally honest and authentic in tone, this collection of voices centers on the suicide of high school freshman Anna Gonzales. Each piece, read alone, portrays a classmate's or teacher's personal reaction to the loss, taken hard by some, by others barely noticed. Read together, the poems create a richly textured and moving testimony to the rippling effects of one girl's devastating choice. Terri Fields has written a thought-provoking, important work that resonates with both pain and hope. This is a book that will stay with readers long after they put it down.
One in seven teens in a classroom of thirty has considered suicide. We have to talk about it to stop it. Because this book gives such a strong anti-suicide message, I am willing to waive my usual author fee and offer FREE classroom Zoom visits to any class that has read or performed this book. Contact me at my email authorterrifields@yahoo.com to arrange it.
