"In the seventies parents weren't as paranoid as they are today, or
at least that is what I like to believe is the reason my father did
not have a problem occasionally dropping us off at the park and not
coming back." Introducing Gina Assley, unpaid school custodian,
unwilling teen opera buff, and all-around social pariah. From
kindergarten psych patient to accidental preteen racist, the one
area Gina seems to excel at in life is the art of extreme
humiliation. Whether she's battling an arch enemy for the title of
top mod or stumbling into the middle of a police manhunt while
tripping on LSD, navigating the cruel childhood landscape of slam
books, punk rock wanabees, and ruthless middle school social
climbers proves to be more challenging than Gina ever could have
anticipated. In this collection of short tales of roller disco,
drugs, and dysfunction, Gina Covarrubias examines the dark
underbelly of social and familial politics, where kids, parents,
and teachers can easily become both the tormented and the
tormentors at the exact same moment in time despite their best
intentions.
