Description
Book SynopsisSoon to be made into a film, Raphael, Gardo and Rat are three street kids who sort through mountains of trash for anything they can sell or recycle. When they come across a mysterious bag amongst the rubbish, containing a key and a wallet, they are soon on the run, using their wits and quick tongues to stay ahead of the police.
Trade ReviewThe story has an infectious energy...This is a highly entertaining and very satisfying book which should be recommended to all. It needs to be read. The Bookseller Mulligan raises issues of corruption, poverty, waste and excess in an exciting, but also grimly sad tale. The Financial Times Trash is a brilliant book. It's vibrant, exciting and incredibly well-written. John Boyne - author of 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas'
