Ulvekongen

by Søren Jessen

Jeg kyler flasken mod væggen, så den smadrer i tusinde stykker. ”Så lad os da for helvede komme af sted!” råber jeg og klemmer mig udenfor, skarpt forfulgt af de andre.
”Hvorhen?” spørger Kenneth.
”Ud og snuse.”
Det ved de godt, hvad betyder.


I Max’ liv er alting helt sort. Næsten.
Skolen er et helvede, og når han skal lave lektier, er det, som om der kravler myrer rundt under hans hud, så han ikke kan sidde stille.
Derhjemme er der hans far, som bare synes, Max skal tage sig sammen. Han regner med, Max starter i gymnasiet efter sommerferien.
Kun når han mødes med drengene i bunkeren, kan han slappe af og føle, at han er noget værd. Eller når han ser sin halvkusine, Lilja, som er den eneste, der forstår ham.



Illustreret kortroman for unge om en utilpasset dreng, der kæmper for at finde ud af livet.
