“A gritty, wonderfully honest investigation of life in an urban American high school in the 21st century. The despair, the apathy, the misplaced
anger, the frustrations and ghts for something
better are all there. The school in Indianapoliswhere Tully spent so much time is close to what I have found in many big cities, but few reportershave gone as deep as Tully has.” —
