The Uneasy Diary of Henry K. Larsen - Susin Nielsen
Henry must try to build a new life. In a new city where no one knows what happened. On the advice of his therapist, he starts a diary. An uncomfortable diary. Full of black humor and brutal honesty.
Henry and his father are trying to figure out their new life and are helped by Henry's great new friend Farley, their nosy Indian neighbor who keeps bringing them curry and Karen, the woman who lives in the same building and is very interested in Henry's father. But what will happen when they find out?
Susin Nielsen is a star in expressing the dreams, worries and thoughts of teenagers. She has already proven this in her critically acclaimed young adult novels, We Are All Molecules, Optimism Is Deadly and Word Nerd. The Uneasy Diary of Henry K. Larsen is her rawest, most painful book to date - and perhaps therefore the most beautiful. And fortunately, her humor is never far away.
Winner of the prestigious Canadian Governor's General Award for Children's Literature
The press on The Uneasy Diary of Henry K. Larsen:
'A deeply emotional story about family members blaming each other and themselves for an unimaginable tragedy. Nielsen's balance of humor and drama is exquisite, making this a surprisingly lighthearted read about such a heavy subject.' - Booklist
