Graphic, honest, compelling, shocking, 'Street Kid In The City' is a documentary-style book that shows what life is really like for street kids in Australia.
Raw, immediate, exasperating, absorbing, this is the true account of life on the streets of Perth, written by a teenage street kid. Part diary, part interviews, this book gives a voice to an underclass that is all too often ignored, categorised and patronised. Delphine's interviews with people she has met reveal the humanity behind the cliches. She explores the world of crime and mental distress from both sides. Amongst the despair and violence is an undiluted energy and an invitation to understanding.
