An inspiring Hi-Lo story for emerging readers from the Gemma Open Door Series.
Brilliant, homeless and nearly invisible, a young man wanders through Boston, looking for meaning and hope. Extreme mood swings and an unusual outlook on life make it impossible for him to thrive in mainstream society. He finds comfort in laundromats, where he calms himself by watching clothes tumble round and round and round. And in the streets he finds other people like himself, below the radar, laboring to survive. Poignant and buoyant, Spin Cycles is a story of loss, discovery, and, just possibly, redemption.
“Spin Cycles reminds us, as the best fiction always does, that every person has a story to tell. Touching and beautiful. ” William Martin, Back Bay and The Lincoln Letter
