- Description
- "Powerful," "affecting," "intimate," "provocative," Understand This by Jervey Tervalon is already being acclaimed as one of the most promising debuts in contemporary American fiction. It is a tapestry whose main thread is the love between Francois and Margot. Seniors at Bolt High, on the surface they have bright futures: Francois is a talented young athlete, while Margot's brains and looks promise to take her far from South Central L.A. But something is holding Francois back.
