| Book Summary |
| A tale for anyone who has ever lived outside looking in, especially from that alien country called adolescence. A funny, heartfelt story from a wise guy who happens to be a girl.
If you've ever fallen in love, if you've ever had your heart broken, this story is your story. -- Sandra Cisneros, author of THE HOUSE ON MANGO STREET
The Paradise projects are only a few metro stops from Paris, but here it's a whole different kind of France. Doria's father, the Beard, has headed backto their hometown in Morocco, leaving her and her mom to cope with their mektoubtheir destinyalone.They have a little help-- from a social worker sent by the city, a psychiatrist sent by the school, and athug friend who recites Rimbaud.
It seems like fate's dealt them an impossiblehand, but Doria might stillmake a newlife.
She'll prove the projects aren't onlyabout rap, soccer, and religious tension. She'll take the Arabic word kif-kif (same old, same old) and mix it up with the French verb kiffer (to really like something). Now she has a whole new motto: KIFFE KIFFE TOMORROW.
Moving and irreverent, sad and funny, full of rage and intelligence.
