- Steve McQueen
Four schoolchildren escape from the horrors of their everyday lives in a children's home and seek asylum in the woods. They enjoy the exhilaration of freedom and the first flush of adolescence, but the forest slowly asserts its power, affecting their lives forever.
Alex Wheatle's compelling narrative, directness, rhythmic prose, and trademark humor showcase his talent as an author. He exposes the social stigma associated with children's homes and the horrifying psychological consequences of their impact on children at a sensitive stage.
Home Boys is an unflinchingly honest depiction of disrupted childhoods, never losing pace or failing to engage the reader. Alex Wheatle's writing is a testament to his ability to convey the complexities of childhood and the importance of understanding and addressing the issues that affect young people.
