The Greatest Young Adult Novel Ever Written

hamburg1

This slim volume, written by Pulitzer Prize winner Paul Zindel, is required reading in English classes across the land. We found it on a shelf in a thrift store on Avenue B. Zindel took the Pulitzer for his play “The Effects of of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds”—parallel tales of a botanical experiment and the lives of two daughters of an over-bearing mother. If you came to this page accidentally thinking it would help you write your essay for third period English, we apologize. Check out one of our stories on meat philosophy or P.G. Woodhouse as long as you are here.

All we can tell you about the book is that Hamburger is a metaphor for abortion. You might just read the book, though. It is about 98 pages and will probably take less time to read than downloading Cliff’s Notes.

Spread the bloody truth.
