You Hear Me?: Poems and Writing by Teenage Boys

107 pp. | Candlewick | August, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-7636-1158-1 $$14.99
(4) YA The poems and occasional brief essays in this volume--all written by boys aged twelve to twenty--concern issues of identity; relationships with parents, friends, and girlfriends; sexuality (often frankly described); and emotional maturation. Though some of the frequently downbeat poems are well written, many are amateurish or self-consciously "literary." Still, teenage poets may find the book inspirational.
