Push - Sapphire
This is the book the upcoming movie Precious is based on.
Very good novel. I needed to keep reminding myself it was a novel. In no case was this passed off as a memoir. Push follows the life of an obese teenager who has lost her childhood. At 12 she had her first child. The book follows her struggle to overcome life.
This is a very graphic book and I can imagine there are not many people who would feel comfortable reading it.
I am looking forward to the movie.
