Notes
Three stories featuring characters from earlier books by Chris Crutcher, thematically united around anger. Kyle Manard and the craggy face of the moon, takes Angus Bethune on a road trip to Reno to confront the mother who abandoned her years before. In, Montana Wild,, student journalist Montana West defends her article on medicinal marijuana in a very public shouting match with the right-wing school-board president, who also happens to be her father. ,Meet me at the gates, Marcus James, unexpectedly binds gay Marcus James, sole black student at his high school, with devout Christian Matt Miller and sympathetic teacher John Simet, when racist football players hang a pink noose on Marcus's locker.
