Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor. The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a deeply affecting coming-of-age story that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.
Jeg så filmatiseringen, før jeg læste denne, da det var filmen ombord på en flyvetur til Danmark. Filmen gave mig lysten til at læse bogen, som jeg havde hørt godt om, men aldrig havde fået læst. Er glad for, at jeg endelig har fået den læst, for den var rigtig, rigtig god. Hovedpersonerne er alle interessante og atypiske. Og hvad der kan lyde som standardhandling for en ungdomsbog, er her underliggende anderledes og speciel
