The Metal Children
by Adam Rapp
Synopsis
In small-town America, a young adult novel about teen pregnancy is banned by the local school board, igniting a fierce and violent debate over abortion, religious beliefs, and modern feminism.
Its directionless New York City author arrives in town to defend the book and finds that it has inspired a group of local teens to rebel in strange and unexpected ways.
A timely and unforgettable drama about the failure of urban and heartland America to understand each other, THE METAL CHILDREN explores what happens when fiction becomes a matter of life and death.
