O knihe

At school, survival wasn't just about fitting in-it was about making it through the day with his dignity intact. The first time they shoved Gary's head into the toilet bowl, he questioned how much more he could take. By the time they drew a swastika on his forehead, he stopped wondering. In the backdrop of 1970s England, Gary navigates the chaotic seas of adolescence in the English coastal town of Hove. With humour and a delicious sense of naivety, he steers through a life marked by a blend of love and dysfunction. At Knoll Boys, Gary faces vicious and relentless bullying that tests his spirit and resilience to breaking point. The horrors he endures aren't just physical-they are ritualistic and dehumanizing, the cruelty seems endless. Despite the bruises and hate-filled taunts, Gary discovers moments of unexpected joy, like the awkward thrills of first love and the surprising strength that begins to grow within him. As he navigates the unpredictable antics of his family and the dark corridors of his school, Gary's journey becomes one of ultimate transformation-a testament to his unbreakable spirit. The Hate Game is a raw and deeply moving coming-of-age memoir that explores the power of laughter, love, and perseverance in the face of unimaginable cruelty. It's a story that will leave you rooting for Gary, laughing with him, and inspired by his indomitable will to rise above the pain and become the change he longed for.
