Der Kunstlehrer denkt, Carson sei einer der Intelligenteren im Knast, bei der Psychologin weckt er mütterliche Gefühle, der Bewährungshelfer interessiert sich vor allem für die schmuddeligen Details seiner Erzählungen. Immer wieder landet Carson im Bau, wegen Drogengeschichten oder weil er nicht ganz legal an ein Auto gekommen ist. Der Roman folgt dem jungen Noongar Aboriginal auf seinen Wegen im Gefängnis, nach draußen und zurück in die Zelle - ein Kreislauf der Gewalt, aus dem es kein Entkommen zu geben scheint. Carsons Geschichte wird dabei nicht von ihm selbst, sondern aus den wechselnden Perspektiven der (zumeist weißen) Menschen erzählt, die ihn umgeben. Ihr Blick, sei er wohlwollend oder gleichgültig, begehrlich oder herablassend, zeichnet Carson als komplexen Charakter, der einem nahekommt und zugleich auf Distanz bleibt - und der längst zum Spielball eines Systems geworden ist, das ihm keine echte Handlungsmacht zugesteht. Erschütternd, aber mit düsterem Witz spiegelt 'Bird' im Mikrokosmos des Gefängnissystems die Realität der noch immer zutiefst segregierten, rassistischen Gesellschaft Australiens, in der Freiheit nicht für alle vorgesehen ist.

Runs large with gaping arm holes.
Size: Large, Color: White
This runs extra large and the arm holes are gaping. You can see your undergarments through the arm holes. I am hoping that the shirt shrinks in the wash.

Fantastically Awesome!
Special Size: Wide Leg Crop, Size: 12, Color: Black
They are spectacular! Very nice quality and I love how they fit. Got the black and ice blue. Having read the reviews, I did go ahead and sized up 2 sizes and it worked perfectly. That is the only con in these jeans, they run at least 2 sizes too small. But, being 100% cotton, I expect that they will shrink down to pretty close my normal size. (I like jeans loose, so it's all good.) Got the cropped ones and I just love them. They are normal length now (because I am short), but after drying, I think they will end up at top of my ankle, and that is cool. The fabric is on the heavy side, but I expected them to be much heavier than what I got. I have a pair of Lee wide leg jeans, and they are much heavier than these. I hope that helps someone in terms of comparison. But overall, these jeans are fantastically awesome - and on sale too boot!! Buy them. They are very wonderful. ❤️

Insanely great jeans for the price!
Special Size: Wide Leg Crop, Size: 12, Color: Medium Blue Vintage
I’m obsessed with these jeans. They’re comfortable and I think they legitimately look great. I had a baby 6 months ago and my body is “in transition” so I didn’t want to buy anything too expensive. These are cute, fit well, good quality. Excellent for short girls - I’m 5’ tall and they’re exactly the right length for a full-length jean. I feel like they’re fashionable without being too trendy (they work for 30somethings as well as 20somethings). They’re nice thick cotton with very little stretch. Because of that I’d be conservative with sizing because they do stretch significantly when you wear them. I got these in the lighter blue, too. The darker wash is slightly smaller and I wound up liking the color better, too. But the light wash is nice.

Excellant value
Special Size: Wide Leg Crop, Size: 14, Color: Rinse, Special Size: Wide Leg Crop, Size: 14, Color: Rinse
Purchased the “cropped” length. I am 5ft 3.5 inch. Weight 170lbs (42 inch hip/38 inch waist) normally wear a size 10/12 or 31 in jeans, depending on the brand. I ordered up at 14 for these based on other reviewers. (When held up to other jeans they were the same as a Talbots 10 at the waist) Prewash they felt good, a little big& length hit at the top of my foot. After wash and dry, the fit was almost perfect and the length was at lower ankle. Ordering up is probably the right choice, although I think I could have been comfortable in a 12 (with no drying). They are a tad bit too long for a “cropped” look IMO. The wide leg is a true wide leg and falls straight from the waist. The material is heavy and there is almost no give/stretch - so a traditional denim. This is the dark blue and it is a true dark blue. You can’t beat the price, excellent value.
