Others, by contrast, relegate this figure to the dustbin of history by evoking disgust or horror, or by unmasking the tragic consequences that ensue from the combination of adolescence, violence, and fantasy.RUS:В своей книге Дженни Каминер показывает, почему именно подросток - неустойчивый, ранимый, склонный к бунту — стал ключевой фигурой в осмыслении тревожной, противоречивой реальности постсоветской эпохи.
