*"What children are, more than anything else, is this: another chance for our flawed species to get it right."
Andrew Vachss, best-selling author of the crime suspense classics Sacrifice and Blossom, creates an exceptional, personal vision of hope and challenge with Another Chance to Get it Right, a prose-poem essay presenting the possibilities and limitations of childhood, along with seven fiction vignettes, facets of the same precious stone.
Joining Andrew Vachss in presenting Another Chance to Get it Right are some of the finest illustrators in the world, each illustrating a separate vignette: Timothy Bradstreet (Hard Looks); Paul Chadwick (Concrete); Geof Darrow (Hard Boiled); Rick Geary (Cyberantics, Prairie Moon); Gary Gianni (Indiana Jones, Hard Looks); Dave Gibbons (Give Me Liberty); and Warren Pleece (Velocity, Hard Looks).
This is a different kind of children's book -- a book for and about the children of the world. Their formidable barriers. Their unlimited potential. And the challenge to us all. Another Chance to Get it Right is a book for children, and their parents now, and for years to come. *Source: darkhorse.com
