Description
Bang by Barry Lyga is a heart-wrenching novel about living with the consequences of a terrible mistake. Ten years after accidentally shooting and killing his infant sister, Sebastian Cody struggles to cope with the guilt and horror of that day. With his best friend away for the summer, he finds solace in a new friendship with Aneesa, but even this relationship cannot ease the pain of his past. As Sebastian grapples with his darkest thoughts, he becomes fixated on finding a way to rectify his childhood crime and sanctify his past. But the only way to move forward is to confront the moment that changed him forever. Bang is an unflinching and honest portrayal of one boy's struggle to come to terms with his past, a story as relevant today as it was when it was first written. This powerful novel explores themes of guilt, redemption, and the long-lasting impact of traumatic events on individuals and their relationships.
