Описание: Luke and Toby have always had each others backs. But then one choice--or maybe it is a series of choices--sets them down an irrevocable path. Well Fly Away weaves together Luke and Tobys senior year of high school with letters Luke writes to Toby later--from death row.
This thought-provoking novel is an exploration of friendship, regret, and redemption, for fans of Matt de la Pena and Marieke Nijkamp.
Best friends since childhood, Luke and Toby have dreamed of one thing: getting out of their dead-end town. Soon they finally will, riding the tails of Lukes wrestling scholarship, never looking back. If they dont drift apart first. If Tobys abusive dad, or Lukes unreliable mom, or anything else their complicated lives throw at them doesnt get in the way.
In a format that alternates between Lukes letters to Toby from death row and the events of their senior year, Bryan Bliss expertly unfolds the circumstances that led to Lukes incarceration. Tense and emotional, this hard-hitting novel explores family abuse, sex, love, and friendship, and how far people will go to protect those they love. For fans of Jason Reynolds, Chris Crutcher, and NPRs Serial podcast.
