(3) YA Translated by Annira Silver. Also translated by Marja Gass. In this Finnish import, twelve-year-old Storm Steele is sent to the Kafkaesque "School of Possibilities." There he must relinquish his skateboard and endure monitoring by his fellow students as well as by teachers. The novel provides a rousing and intriguingly eerie look at the pressure to conform.
Reviewer: Christine M. Heppermann
