Graffiti. When you see a tag on a wall, do you ever wonder about the artist who did it? If the tag is brash enough you're not necessarily going to assume that the artist is one of life's victims.i read this novel called Hite by K.Saksena,story a graff artist,Lee...and his life of child abuse and gangs..
now lee..He isn't a hardened graffiti artist. Some buildings are too beautiful to mess up. Usually, he just hides on rooftops, away from his violent and drunken father, and the gangs on his estate, and constant failure at school, and the general squalor of his life.
hes always up on the roof to get away from it all. He likes the time and space to sit down and do his drawing - the sketchbook kind - but actually, when Ruby*an older teenager* finds her way up onto the roof, he isn't that disappointed.
It's a matter of self-confidence really. Lee needs to turn on the bullies in his life and stand up for himself.
One of those books where the characters are larger than life and quite unlikely, but lots of fun. The brutishness, on the other hand, feels real enough. Seehow he gets on.Read the book. I think you'll enjoy it.
i might lend this book to Baz later..i think she would like this one.
