Ergebnis für "Hell" in Coming of Age

Eine packende und rührende Geschichte über Mut und die Suche nach sich selbst von Bestsellerautor Robert Dugoni. "Wir glauben, dass wir unseren Lebensweg selbst wählen. Aber da täuschen wir uns." Aufgrund eines Gendefekts hat Sam rote Pupillen. Für seine Mutter ist das Gottes Wille, die anderen verhöhnen ihn als "Teufelsjungen". Erst als Sam die rebellische Mickie und den afroamerikanischen Ernie kennenlernt, ist er nicht länger einsam, und die drei Außenseiter werden Freunde.

Sam Hill always saw the world through different eyes. Born with red pupils, he was called “Devil Boy” or Sam “Hell” by his classmates; “God’s will” is what his mother called his ocular albinism. Her words were of little comfort, but Sam persevered. Sam believed it was God who sent Ernie Cantwell, the only African American kid in his class, to be the friend he so desperately needed. And that it was God’s idea for Mickie Kennedy to storm into Our Lady of Mercy like a tornado, uprooting every rule Sam had been taught about boys and girls.
