«La guerra del chocolate» is the young adult novel by Robert Cormier, published by Ediciones Obelisco in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
At Trinity High School, Jerry Renault refuses to take part in the annual chocolate sale, a key event for the school and Brother Leon. His refusal divides the school community: some see him as a hero, others as a target for their resentment. The novel addresses social pressure, manipulation, and the price of defending one's own identity.
First edition in 2002, within the Magoria collection. The original work, «The Chocolate War», was published in 1974.
Aimed at young readers, as well as adults interested in young adult literature and its moral dilemmas.
Robert Edmund Cormier was an American writer and journalist, known for his deeply pessimistic novels, many of which were written for young adults. Recurring themes include abuse, mental illness, violence, revenge, betrayal, and conspiracy. In most of his novels, the protagonists do not win.
