THE PICASSO PROJECT

By Carol Anne Shaw

When you live in your car the way 18-year-old Eddie and his sister, Maya, do, the rules are pretty simple: lay low, trust no one, and make sure you have plenty of duct tape on hand. But Maya is growing up fast. She's forgetting how to play the game, and Eddie is finding it harder and harder to keep them both safe from the outside world. When their lives suddenly become complicated through a mistake Maya makes, Eddie begins to lose his composure. And why wouldn't he? He hasn't had time to address his own emotional wounds. He's been too busy looking out for his sister. But even in the worst of times; even when you think you've hit rock bottom, there is always hope. Told in the third-person, present tense, along with first-person excerpts from the pages of Eddie's sketchbook/journal, THE PICASSO PROJECT is a novel about strength, courage, and vulnerability. Ultimately, it shows us what can happen when we finally own our histories, let them go, and open yourself up to possibility.
