Andersons Feed, there was Robert Cormiers I Am the Cheese, a subversive classic that broke new ground for YA literature.A boys search for his father becomes a desperate journey to unlock a secret past. But the past must not be remembered if the boy is to survive. As he searches for the truth that hovers at the edge of his mind, the boy-and readers-arrive at a shattering conclusion.An absorbing, even brilliant job.
