Burning Bright, by Barry Levy (Used)

"Sitting there in the midst of them, I glow . . . I am like a sun; a teenage sun around which they revolve, learn, aspire, grow red with envy. Me. Burning bright. Unstoppable."
It was a different read, but worth it.

This story was written by the south african author Barry Levy. The story is about a boy named Danny who turns to Uncle Harold, a charismatic political liberal, for advice because he is the only adult in his life he can trust. But worldly, slick Uncle Harold has another plan in mind. He has a history of abusing children.
this was a well written novel and i highly recommend it
