Blood Relations

Blood Relations

Chris Lynch
0/5 ( ratings)
In a few short years Chris Lynch has established himself as a powerful, innovative writer of young adult fiction. His new "Blue-Eyed Son" trilogy reinforces that reputation, taking its " 100% White American" hero from his tough, blue-collar Irish neighborhood on a journey of self-discovery that's raw, explosive --and often very funny. From an author with a uniquely compelling voice, here is a coming-of-age story like no other. The first two "Blue-Eyed Son" titles, "Mick" and "Blood Relations" focus on Mick, a 15-year-old who has spent his life living in the same neighborhood surrounded by fellow blue-collar, Irish Americans. For a long time, he had no problem with the neighborhood's us-against-the-world attitude. But now, like the city, Mick is changing.

"Blue-Eyed Son" #1, "Mick," introduces the entrenched history of Mick's neighborhood and culminates with hostilities that break out against Cambodian-Americans and the Irish-American Gay Pride Coalition participating in the St. Patrick's Day Parade. Mick realizes that he doesn't agree with the brutal prejudice of his neighborhood friends and brother and begins to make new friends outside the neighborhood circle.
