Two boys, by Rocco Paperiello

At one hundred and four chapters, this is a fairly substantial novel, although the chapters are fairly short.
This is story of the love between a black boy and a white boy, between a poor boy and a middle class boy and in a way strange way about a straight boy and a gay boy. More than those though, this is a story about prejudice. Not so much the cruel hatred and and violence for which some of the US is so well known, but the pettiness and thoughtlessness of dislike and ignorance of which there is still far to much around in the world today.
