Editorial Reviews

Francesca Lia Block explores love in The Hanged Man, a novel that is not part of the Weetzie Bat series even though it shares the same Los Angeles backdrop. It's the story of 17-year-old Laurel, who lives just below the famous Hollywood sign. Her mind twisted and scarred from painful childhood experiences, Laurel becomes an addict and is driven toward reckless passions and empty mirages of "love." Only when she finds the strength to confront her inner demons is she able to reach out and feel a strong, true love for others, and herself. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
From Publishers Weekly
"Block's novel is structured upon the conventions of a tarot reading, adding another layer of meaning and mystery to the hypnotic prose," said PW's starred review of this tale of a girl grappling with her abusive father's death. "Disturbing but ultimately exhilarating." Ages 12-up. (Oct.) r
