Opis

"You can spend a lifetime conjuring ways to undermine the ugly fence that taunts you, to get to the fields that burn flames of emerald light when the ever-blushing sun casts life upon it, to sink your bare toes into the "Green Grass" that everyone who's anyone raves about-but have you ever given thought to who and what your life will dedicate its very motivation to once everything you've ever craved like air is resting in the palm of your hand?" For juniors Ptolly, Marcus and Tiffanie, life in small town Pennsylvania has never been remotely easy. Be it the country air that reeks of eau de Cow Manure, or the small, simple minded youth that plagues their high school with rotting corpses of their perishing aspirations, each and every day feels like repeating kindergarten over and over again. That is, until a life-altering adventure in a black hood of disguise unsuspectingly walks into their lives in the form of an accident that should have killed them. Though, it's not until the threatening messages land in their inboxes that the trio realizes this "adventure" has been nearing its boiling point since before they were in the womb, and that kissing their small town goodbye-although being the whole point of their boring little lives-may very well be their demise. "The Pride" is a story about discovering that even when you have the world at your fingertips, you still need something to reach for. "
