>> Hello,
>> The Honors American Literature class gives a very specific summer reading
>> assignment in our town.  Students need to read a contemporary novel (1980
or
>> after) written by an American author, and it must have the theme of
>> individual vs.society. They must be able to write an essay on how the
>> character seeks redemption.
>>
>> Any suggestions? We had our first student with this assignment today, and
>> we want to be ready with a long list when the swarms start coming.

>> Thanks so much!

How about *The absolutely true diary of a part-time Indian* by Sherman
Alexie?
Wonderful book!
