Booklist : Marcus, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, was granted full access to students, parents, and staff at a therapeutic boarding school in western Massachusetts. The result is an astonishing profile of troubled teens: foulmouthed and truant Bianca; D. J., on the brink of failing and fascinated with fire; disengaged and depressed Tyrone, from the housing projects in Queens; and Mary Alice, drug addicted and sexually promiscuous. Through his focus on particular teens and their families, Marcus highlights the complexities of modern adolescence--studies show that one in four youths suffers from some kind of behavioral or emotional problem, including higher rates of suicide, depression, and delinquency. Marcus details the backgrounds, family lives, and personalities of the teens and their struggles with anger and pressure at home and at school. He then tracks their therapy and the slow, painful healing process. The teens build trust with their counselors and among themselves and finally rebuild their relationships with their families. This is a revealing and engrossing look at the recovery process for troubled teens.
