This is literature. It's been written beautifully. There is content that makes it hard to read but it brings to life Victor's world. There is some gang fighting and drugs, which is part of Victor's life. It is set in Fresno, so if you are from Fresno, you'll recognize City College, Fresno State, Woodward Park and other places. Victor has the soul of an artist. He can draw. He has an amazing teacher who encourages his art work. Victor has lots of challenges in life. It is a good read. I liked the book and it reminded me of students I have had in the past. I believe it is an important read.
