Francie vokser op i en lille irsk by i begyndelsen af 1960’erne. Som de fleste drenge er han optaget af fjernsynets helte, slik og hemmelige huler. Noget forandres dog, da drengen Philip Nugent kommer ind i hans liv. Philip fascinerer Francie med sin perfekte samling af tegneserier og sin fine nodetaske. Men Philips familie ser ned på Francie og hans ophav. De bryder sig hverken om hans fordrukne far eller hans deprimerede mor. De kalder dem en 'svinefamilie med svinemanerer' og langsomt forvandles Francies fascination af familien Nugent til had og misundelse.

Raised in Charlotte, North Carolina, in the heart of Jim Crow, Dovey Johnson Roundtree felt the sting of inequality at an early age and made a point to speak up for justice.

In Coming to Our Senses, cognitive scientist Viki McCabe argues that prevailing theories of perception, cognition, and information cannot explain how we know the world around us. Using scientific studies and true stories, McCabe shows that the ecological disasters, political paralysis, and economic failures we now face originate in our tendency to privilege cognitive processes and products over the information we access with our perceptual systems.
