Traffick
Autor Ellen Hopkinsen Limba Engleză Hardback – 2 noi 2015 – vârsta de la 14 ani
In her bestselling novel, "Tricks," Ellen Hopkins introduced us to five memorable characters tackling these enormous questions: Eden, the preacher s daughter who turns tricks in Vegas and is helped into a child prostitution rescue; Seth, the gay farm boy disowned by his father who finds himself without money or resources other than his own body; Whitney, the privileged kid coaxed into the life by a pimp and whose dreams are ruined in a heroin haze; Ginger, who runs away from home with her girlfriend and is arrested for soliciting an undercover cop; and Cody, whose gambling habit forces him into the life, but who is shot and left for dead.
And now, in "Traffick," these five are faced with the toughest question of all: "Is there a way out?" How these five teenagers face the aftermath of their decisions and experiences is the soul of this story that exposes the dark, ferocious underbelly of the child trafficking trade. Heartwrenching and hopeful, "Traffick "takes us on five separate but intertwined journeys through the painful challenges of recovery, rehabilitation, and renewal to forgiveness and love. All the way home."

Extras
Traffick
The courage to leap
the brink, free-fall
beyond the precipice,
hurtle toward
the abyss,
end the pain. Mine.
Mom’s. Oh, she’d feel
the initial sting, cry
for a day or two, but it
would be
short-lived, a quick
stab of grief. Finite.
A satin-lined coffin
and cool, deep hole are
preferable to
walking a treadmill
over a carpet of coals,
enduring the blistering,
skin-cracking flames of
this living hell.
A Poem by Cody Bennett
Can’t Find
The courage to leap
the brink, free-fall
beyond the precipice,
hurtle toward
the abyss,
end the pain. Mine.
Mom’s. Oh, she’d feel
the initial sting, cry
for a day or two, but it
would be
short-lived, a quick
stab of grief. Finite.
A satin-lined coffin
and cool, deep hole are
preferable to
walking a treadmill
over a carpet of coals,
enduring the blistering,
skin-cracking flames of
this living hell.
