Out of BoundsPenguin UK, 2001年6月7日 - 160 頁 A collection of short stories - four previously published and three new - linked by the theme of young people experiencing personal dilemmas.

They cover the period from 1950 to 2000 and reflect the lives of a range of young people, black and white, living in what was for many years seen as the world's most openly racist society. |
