New Boy

From the bestselling author of Girl with a Pearl Earring and The Last Runaway

Arriving at his fourth school in six years, diplomat’s son Osei knows he needs an ally if he is to survive his first day – so he’s lucky to hit it off with Dee, the most popular girl in school. But one student can’t stand to witness this budding relationship: Ian decides to destroy the friendship between the black boy and the golden girl. By the end of the day, the school and its key players – teachers and pupils alike – will never be the same again.

The tragedy of Othello is transposed to a 1970s suburban Washington schoolyard in Tracy Chevalier's powerful drama of friends torn apart by jealousy, bullying and betrayal.

De la cel mai bine vandut autor al cartii Fata cu un cercei de perle si Ultimul fugit Ajungand la a patra scoala din sase ani, fiul diplomatului Osei stie ca are nevoie de un aliat daca vrea sa supravietuiasca in prima zi - asa ca are norocul sa-l loveasca cu Dee, cea mai populara fata din scoala.
