Edition Notes

Long Way Down is a 2017 novel by Jason Reynolds that follows main character Will Holloman as he struggles to come to terms with his grief and anger in the aftermath of his brother Shawn’s death due to a gang-related shooting. Told in short, powerful verse, the novel explores the tenacity of the cycle of violence, the pain of toxic masculinity, and the dangers of repressed grief. Long Way Down has won numerous awards, including the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Young Adult Literature, a Walter Dean Meyers Award, a Newberry Award Honor, and a Coretta Scott King Award Honor.
