DJ has slight wear and soiling. This is Neil Hare's first book. He is an exciting author and a rising American literary star. His story is one shared by most young people today-the disillusionment of trying to eke out a meaningful existence in today's modern economy. Washington D.C. is more than the center of government in the United States. It is a Mecca for young Americans looking to make their mark on the world. In An Animal Cries a recent college graduate journeys to Washington to begin his quest for the American Dream but instead falls headlong into a dark and desperate reality. His journey takes him to a Washington far removed from pristine monuments and government buildings.
