Melissa, Roxane, and Kevin have never had it easy. As their parents face their own struggles - with addiction, unemployment, and abuse - they must learn to fend for themselves. Though their lives converge at school, on the street, at the corner store, or when they can hear each other through their apartments' thin walls, they each feel deeply alone. Neighbourhood Watch tells their coming-of-age stories with a cinematic ease, moving between despairand the unalterable hope of childhood. | Neighbourhood Watch by Anais Barbeau-Lavalette, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
