## Description

WITH A NEW INTRODUCTION BY COLIN WALSH, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF KALA'A compelling narrative, a beautifully structured piece of writing, and a thought-provoking novel of ideas' Sarah WatersHis new name is Jack. To his new friends, he is a good guy with occasional flashes of unexpected violence. To his new girlfriend, he is strangely inexperienced and unreachable. To his case worker, he's a victim of the system and of media-driven hysteria. And to himself, Jack is on permanent trial: most of his life has been spent in juvenile institutions, guilty of a monstrous childhood crime. Searing and heartfelt, Boy A is a devastating exploration of guilt, retribution and the blurred lines between fact and fabrication.
