Description
This 25th Anniversary Edition of Push includes a new preface from Tayari Jones and a new afterword by the author. The story is told through Precious's diary, in which she candidly records her relationships and life.
After being forced out of school due to pregnancy, Precious is given an alternative teaching programme where she learns to read and write. This powerful coming-of-age tale explores themes of family life, urban struggles, and the resilience of the human spirit.
A vibrant and unflinching portrayal of one young woman's journey, Push has been praised for its brutal defence of the vulnerable and its unforgettable voice.
