Tracey Berkowitz rides a bus looking for her lost ten-year-old brother as she thinks about her dysfunctional parents and the schoolmates who treat her with scorn, as she escapes into a fantasy about an imaginary boyfriend who will rescue her.
Naked under a tattered shower curtain, 15-year-old Tracey Berkowitz has been sitting on a bus for two days, telling her story and looking for her brother, Sonny, who thinks hes a dog. She confesses her hopes and fantasies, as well as the grief and horror of a hardscrabble life. As time passes, Traceys stories begin to twist the truth and entwine it with lies, at once captivating and unsettling the reader. As an unforgettable portrait of a teenager on the verge of imploding, The Tracey Fragments has been compared to The Catcher in the Rye with a style similar to that of Go Ask Alice. Maureen Medved''s first novel is a raw, moving account full of twists and turns, fear and uncertainty, trust and betrayal.
