Tunnel Vision by Fran Arrick

I read this book in, I think, 10th grade. This book really made me even more suicidal. The Poem that Anthony wrote, in the end, I was going to leave as part of my suicide note when I finally got the courage to "leave" which I never did. I've been looking all over for this book. Can't wait to read it again.

Amazing!!!

I read this book in the midst of a serious battle with teenage depression, and surprisingly enough, it helped me through it. Seeing that this boy thought he had nothing left to live for, and then seeing how many people actually cared for him, it really put things into perspective. I definately recommend this book to everyone.

"A teenage suicide"

"Tunnel Vision" is a book which looks at the problems which are being faced by teenagers and the self-destruction which a teenager is led to. This is followed by the events of the days following Anthony's suicide, in which every family member and friend looks for a reason as to what was responsible for this outcome. I was grasped by this tenurial story.
