The hottest summer of the twentieth century. A tiny community of five houses in the middle of wheat fields. While the adults shelter indoors, six children venture out on their bikes across the scorched, deserted countryside.

In the midst of that sea of golden wheat, nine year-old Michele Amitrano discovers a secret so momentous, so terrible, that he daren’t tell anyone about it. To come to terms with it he will have to draw strength from his own imagination and sense of humanity. The reader witnesses a dual story: the one that is seen through Michele's eyes, and the tragedy involving the adults of this isolated hamlet. The result is an immensely powerful, lyrical and skillfully narrated novel, its atmosphere reminiscent of Tom Sawyer, Stephen King's Stand By Me and Italo Calvino's Italian Fairy Tales.

This is Ammaniti's third book, but his first to be published in the USA.

Rate Containing Books I'm Not Scared

Great little pageturner. Ammaniti delivers a pitch-perfect coming-of-age thriller impossible not to burn through. The close feels too abrupt, but the plot has a reader going at such a compulsive speed, there is hardly the time to put the brakes on.

This book is a coming of age tale about a young boy who stumbles upon a dark secret with links to his family. I hate to give away too much because the book is short and the plot should be a surprise.It is well written with a beautiful sense of time, place and characterization. The main character of the story is a nine year old boy enjoying a sweltering summer with his friend's and younger sister who is torn by the things he learns. He makes choices that I thought were very realistically written

I was scared.



Despite its title, Im scared and so is Michele, the 9-year-old narrator of this suspenseful story. Its fast paced and wild, and you cant help but be pulled in immediately and with full heart and soul. Ammaniti knows how to create a grim story that has a loveable, heroic boy at its center. And he knows how to keep you sitting on the edge of your seat. The book is scary, but addictive. It reads like a nightmarish fairytale. Theres good versus evil all over the place. Theres one small good guy

I'm not sure how to describe this book. Is it a shattering of innocence, a coming of age story, a mystery, a suspense novel or is it all of these? I was drawn into the story immediately by the short terse prose, the descriptions of the countryside and the dialogue and actions of the young children in the story. Ammaniti, has captured with accuracy the actions and thoughts of a child who is caught in an adult situation. As the reader you are viewing the events from the eyes of nine year old

And again a really good book of Niccolò Ammaniti. I was so eager to know how the story would end that I just couldn't put the book away and kept on reading. What I really liked about this book was that it is written in the point-of-view of a 9 year old boy.
