It is ugly in its brutality and racism. It is told from an adult pov remembering his young years at the school. I think this novel is very thought provoking and I hope many of you read it but has several problems which keep me from recommending it for this list. ~ Gail Zachariah, Keene Public Library<\/p>\n<p>This was a disturbing read involving an adult remembering his days of torture and racism at a boys&#8217; boarding school in Zimbabwe. Reading the story, I found some of the African slang hard to translate until I discovered the reference in the back of the book! Very powerful, you won&#8217;t forget this story. Not to be read for enjoyment, thus I&#8217;m not sure it should make the list. Definitely for high school teens.<br \/>Denise Schaaf, Goffstown Public Library      <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FlumeAward &#8211; Out of Shadows \/\/Out of the Shadows\/\/ by Jason Wallace This is a complex story set in 1980s Zimbabwe with bullies, victims, and bystanders in a boys&#8217; boarding &#8230; <\/p>\n<p class=\"moree\"><a class=\"btn btn-inverse btn-normal btn-primary \" href=\"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/2018\/03\/out-of-shadows-2\/\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2347","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-flume-award-titles"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2347","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2347"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2347\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3344,"href":"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2347\/revisions\/3344"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2347"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2347"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nhlibraries.org\/fun\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2347"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
