What do you do when you're working in the kitchen of a summer camp in Vermont, but you're not allowed to swim in the camp lake? All the writers' pain, confusion, humiliation, and rage are vividly expressed, but many of them went on to realize their dreams against overwhelming odds. Their voices offer hope, inspiration, and a challenge to us all.… (mehr)
