Colson Whitehead

"The Nickel Boys" is a powerful and moving novel that tells the story of two black boys who are wrongfully accused of a crime and sent to a brutal reform school in Florida.
Through the eyes of Elwood Curtis, a gifted student who dreams of becoming a writer, we witness the horrors of the Nickel Academy, a place where children are subjected to physical and psychological abuse.
As Elwood and his friend Turner navigate the horrors of Nickel, they forge an unbreakable bond and find hope amidst the darkness.

Based on a true story, "The Nickel Boys" is a powerful indictment of the American criminal justice system and a moving exploration of the resilience of the human spirit.
