Lunch with Lenin and Other Stories

Deborah Ellis's first collection of short stories explores the lives of children who have been affected directly, or indirectly, by drugs. Sometimes touching and often surprising, the stories are set against backdrops as diverse as the remote north and small town America to Moscow's Red Square and an opium farm in Afghanistan.This is an unforgettable collection of stories that will elicit discussions about the toll drugs take on the lives of teenagers and their families.
