When Claude was young he was in a fish and chip place and he was shot in his side. it was important because he could have died. it made me think about how bout violence is in low class areas. i thought that he was going to die and the story would be told from someone else's perspective of Claude's life.
I like Claude. I do not like PaPa because he beats up his son when he acts out. i do not relate to anybody in the book. I wonder what happens to Claude's friends later on in life.
The important choice that Claude faces is giving up his life of a thug and becoming a better person. When he was shot a second time his decision was influenced to get better.
The minor characters are his siblings, Mama and Papa, Pimp, Turk And Danny. they either help him try to get better or make him get worse.
Overall this was such a fantastic book sand look forward to reading more like it.
