“The Invisible World of Adolescence” is a book for every teenager who has ever felt invisible, misunderstood or alone. At the same time it is an invitation to parents, teachers and every adult who wants to understand a young person's inner world better.
Told in the first person, the book reflects that inner world with honesty and feeling. The characters differ, but what runs through them is universal: the need to be accepted, insecurity, loneliness, love, the fear of being judged, and the search for identity. That is what makes the book feel so personal to each reader, as though part of their own story had been written into its pages.
