AWARD-WINNING FICTION.If you are a teacher, this is a must-read collection of short stories. "AVOIDING EVEN THE WHIFF OF SENTIMENTALITY, Adam Schwartz takes the reader into the lives of characters from disparate radial and sociaecononomic backgrounds as they struggle for some sort of normalcy in a world that too often ignores their plight. The dialogue in this collection of stories is tense and edgy, the prose spare and lean. With its unforgettable characters, THE REST OF THE WORLD gives us reason to have faith in the resiliency of young people -- Elizabeth Nunez
