Paperback. Etat : Very Good.

Paperback. Etat : Good. In an electrifying novel, a black street girl, sixteen years old and pregnant, again, with her father's child, speaks.

Day after day they go over the pages, translating the illiterate but developing language of Precious' journals. The learning process itself, as vividly revealed as the most brutal aspects of Precious' daily existence, is the heartbeat of a novel that will disturb, galvanize, and stay in the mind.…
