Description

Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor. Since its first publication in 1999, Stephen Chbosky's haunting debut novel has received critical acclaim, provoked discussion and debate, grown into an international phenomenon, and inspired a major motion picture. Now, to mark the anniversary of his beloved cult classic, Charlie has written a new letter, his first in twenty years. More intimate than a diary, Charlie's letters are singular and unique, hilarious and devastating. We may not know where he lives. We may not know to whom he is writing. All we know is the world he shares. Caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it puts him on a strange course through uncharted territory. The world of first dates, family dramas, and new friends; of sex, drugs, and the Rocky Horror Picture Show, where all you need is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. Through Charlie, Chbosky has created a novel which will spirit the reader back to those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.
