Pubblicato nel 2008, a più di dieci anni dall'uscita, rimane un libro fenomenale.
Crudo, feroce e diretto, con scene rese ancora più strazianti dal contrasto tra il bisogno di sopravvivere e il rifiuto di essere ridotti a merce, la storia va avanti a benzina e colpi di scena, immergendo il lettore in uno squallore che da assuefazione. Lo stile è asciutto e privo di fronzoli, ma ciò amplifica la potenza del libro a dismisura. Riletto da adulto ti lascia addosso un certo effetto, molto sgradevole, che da adolescente non avevo provato.
