Against the Wall

A ground-breaking and powerful novel about Jewish teenagers at risk. This novel tells the fictional story of three London boys who allowed the author to lift the dark, obscure carpet under which many in the Jewish community like to shove the issues they’d rather not think about. Fictional, but based on truth, because Ruthie Pearlman met and interviewed many boys, and girls too, in researching this heart-stopping story. Their stories have been blended and mixed together, until Against the Wall emerged.
