First Times: Short Stories about Sex
by Nicole LambeA balm for adolescent anxiety, this inclusive collection offers sometimes imperfect but always frank short stories of first sexual experiences. Although to be honest, there isn’t ever really a first time, is there? Rather there are many: first times with yourself. First times with another person. First times you look forward to. First times you wish you could forget. First times that are sexy as hell. First times that are definitely, definitely not. First Times: Short Stories about Sex collects nine stories by nine different authors, writing from a vast range of perspectives, cultural backgrounds and sexual orientations — revealing how unreasonable it is to define ourselves by a single, overhyped moment. (What a relief!) With stories by Laurence Beaudoin Masse, Edith Chouinard, Vanessa Duchel, Schelby Jean-Baptiste, Alexandra Larochelle, Jérémie Larouche, Nicolas Michon, Olivier Simard and Pierre-Yves Villeneuve; edited by Karine Glorieux and translated by Shelley Tanaka.

First the Blade

Fitting In, Standing Out
by Robert CrosnoeIn American high schools, teenagers must navigate complex youth cultures that often prize being 'real' while punishing difference. Adults may view such social turbulence as a timeless, ultimately harmless rite of passage, but changes in American society are intensifying this rite and allowing its effects to cascade into adulthood. Integrating national statistics with interviews and observations from a single school, this book explores this phenomenon. It makes the case that recent macro-level trends, such as economic restructuring and technological change, mean that the social dynamics of high school can disrupt educational trajectories after high school; it looks at teenagers who do not fit in socially at school - including many who are obese or gay - to illustrate this phenomenon; and it crafts recommendations for parents, teachers and policy-makers about how to protect teenagers in trouble. The result is a story of adolescence that hits home with anyone who remembers high school.
