Product Details
Overview
“In his second novel, Park . . . paint[s] a painfully honest and often wickedly funny portrait of a young boy growing up in a crumbling, multi-ethnic New York City housing project in the 1980s.” —Publisher’s Weekly
Life isn’t easy for 12-year-old Peter Kim. The super and other thugs in his neighborhood are out to get him. His best friend suddenly hates his guts. And he’s stuck wasting his summer babysitting his weirdo little brother. But things hit absolute rock bottom when his family’s apartment gets burglarized and he loses his most-prized possession.
Undaunted, Peter tries his best to forget about the burglary and move on. But his misfit friends, all members of the Warriors, just won’t let him. Spurred on by his friends’ teasing and the desire simply to shut them up, he reluctantly sets out to find out who ripped him off.
Set in the bowels of the 1980s, Las Cucarachas is a coming-of-age story that documents the most important 48 hours of a boy’s life.
