Пълно описание

"To say my childhood was chaotic is like saying World War II had a few gunshots," David Burns writes in Kid on Fire.

This is the true story of a young boy and his family living on the fringes of society in the 1940s and 50s. Young David survives abject poverty, multiple abusive homes, drunken car wrecks, fires, being in and out of orphanages, homelessness, starvation, death in his family, being abandoned and forced to find his own food, and alcoholism all before he finishes high school.

In the face of continuous trauma, David struggles to find his place in the world, and to cope in the only way he knows. "All I can say is God must hear silent prayers, and He must be saving me for something." Written with sincerity and candor, Kid on Fire is a memoir of redemption you won't soon forget.
