It is a ''coming-of-age'' story, a tour-de-force that ushers the reader into the world of abuse, addiction, sex, drugs and violence.In words poetic, as well as raw and real, Spiteri paints a stunning masterpiece of triumph over tragedy; a powerful canvas of self-discovery, therapeutic growth and self-love.
