In many ways, Junior is engulfed by the emotional realities of his life and his community. Yet his spare, matter-of-fact language and his keen sense of irony help him to confront and negotiate the hurt, the rage, an the senselessness of Wellpinit's everyday realities. How does Junior use language to lead readers (that's YOU) to the kind of understanding that they will not necessarily get from other young adult fiction?
