The Beautiful-Ugly: The Trilogy Copertina flessibile – 21 settembre 2014
Opzioni di acquisto e componenti aggiuntivi
Suddenly a young life that was surrounded by a loving family one moment and spiraling out of control the next…is now in freefall. That’s when six-year-old Connelly Pierce begins her incredible, fourteen-year odyssey across America and into the darkest underbellies of this strange new world she must learn to navigate. All the while, changing from that once little girl into young womanhood, and beginning to understand—if she has any hope of surviving, of finding her brother who’s now gone missing, of breaking through to the other side of whatever awaits her—she must count only on her own self, her own mind, her own heart, to get her there.
Still, there was one more thing she had to learn. And that was that fighting an ever-changing, faceless and uncaring system was one thing. But running away to fight the entire world, even with all her anger and rage, was something entirely different…

The author has an unusual writing style that took some getting used to. He is very descriptive, and the book almost reads like a persons actual thought process. Sometimes jumping here to there and back again, but I think that brings the reader even further into the story; almost as a voyeur. I had a hard time putting this book down. I look forward to reading more by this author.
The use of language, the insights into human nature, the descriptions of both physical and spiritual themes are breathtaking. Do not read this book if you have a sensitive nature. Do read this book if you want to wake up your mind and feel the blood pumping faster through your veins. Ultimately 'The Beautiful Ugly' is life-affirming. Take your time and relish each word and relish the work of a true master storyteller.
I had a slight problem with the title, even though it is explicated at one point. The title doesn't seem to me to exemplify the story. The protagonist seems to almost sleep-walk through some very horrific situations, while the ending left threads dangling and issues unresolved. On the plus side, the inner thoughts and reactions of a young woman and an artist are handled quite well. I say this as an old woman who is an artist and who recognized my own experiences as both.
This was an interesting read that kept me involved.
