House Rules. Jodi Picoult301 руб
- Stephen King Picoult has become a master - almost a clairvoyant - at targeting hot issues and writing highly readable page-turners about them . Picoult writes with unassuming brilliance. - Washington Post Jacob Hunt is a teenage boy with Aspergers syndrome. It is impossible not to be held spellbound by the way she forces us to think, hard, about right and wrong. Hes always showing up at crime scenes, thanks to the police scanner he keeps in his room, and telling the cops what they need to do - and hes usually right. Hes hopeless at reading social cues or expressing himself to others, and like many children with Aspergers, Jacob has an obsessive focus on one subject - in his case, forensic analysis. Reluctance to make eye contact, stimulatory tics and twitches, inappropriate gestures, all these can look a lot like guilt. But then one day his tutor is found dead, and the police come to question him. 2010. Suddenly, Jacob finds himself accused of murder. |
