Title : Loud and Loud - Joyce Carol Oates - book

Summary :

She's Ursula. Because she's tall, very tall, and uncomfortable in her own skin, Ursula calls herself the No Good. Yet, at sixteen, she's a beautiful girl, intelligent, and unusually strong-willed. Solitary and independent, she's unlike any other. He's Matt. Gifted, funny, he's a brilliant boy, well-liked by everyone. He likes to make people laugh, he speaks loudly and clearly. Too much so sometimes. The day he threatened to plant a bomb at the high school, Matt was joking. But events unfold, taking an increasingly dramatic turn: suspected, accused, isolated, he sees his life gradually become hell. Only Ursula doesn't give in to the rumor... Joyce Carol Oates depicts with sensitivity and strength—not without humor—a society struggling with conformity and hypocrisy.
