Talijanska spisateljica B. Pitzorno, jedna od najpopularnijih dječjih spisateljica u Italiji u posljednjih 30 godina, napisala je ovu znanstvenofantastičnu priču da bi upozorila na ekološku katastrofu koja prijeti velikim gradovima. Splet okolnosti spaja osobenjake od kojih se ne zna tko je veći izvanzemaljac, a sve je popraćeno ilustracijama što su doslovce srasle s tekstom. Nije ni čudo, s obzirom na peripetije koje izazove neobičan izum poznatog botaničara.

Lee Fiora is veertien als ze voor de deur van de prestigieuze Ault-school afgezet wordt. Tot dat moment kende Lee de kostschool alleen uit de brochure, met foto's van jongens in sweaters en meisjes in geruite rokken. Gaandeweg ontdekt Lee hoe de wereld van rijk en bevoorrecht Amerika eruitziet en raakt ze beurtelings aangetrokken en afgestoten door deze jongens en meisjes met hun eigen codes en mores. Haar relaas omsluit de pijnlijke maar opwindende weg naar volwassenheid. 'Prep' is het humoristische, ontroerende, pijnlijk herkenbare en vooral universele verhaal van een tiener die vriendschap en waardering zoekt maar tegelijkertijd probeert haar identiteit en onafhankelijkheid te bewaren.

Alzheimerova bolest, neizlječivi progresivni poremećaj pamćenja i prava javnozdravstvena pošast bliske budućnosti, glavni je lik ove sjajne, vrlo čitke i razumljivo pisane knjige. David Shenk usporedno pripovijeda o povijesti istraživanja bolesti, od početka 20. stoljeća kad je dobila ime po dr. Aloisu Alzheimeru koji je prvi otkrio organske promjene (čvoriće i plakove) u mozgu pedesetogodišnje bolesnice, kao i o simptomima i kliničkom tijeku: gubitku pamćenja, prostornoj dezorijetiranosti i sve većoj zbunjenosti. Nakon postavljanja dijagnoze, prosječno je vrijeme preživljavanja oko osam godina, a za manje od pedesetak godina pretpostavlja se da u razvijenim zemljama neće više biti čovjeka koji na neki način neće biti pogođen ovom bolešću. Ovo djelo puno ljudskosti i sućuti nije samo prikaz drama koje se počinje odigravati u obiteljima bolesnika; ono dovodi na scenu liječnike i znanstvenike, smoždene njegovateljice, političare suočene s proturječnim odlukama, kao i same bolesnike s njihovim dirljivim pripovijestima: Walda Emersona, Marka Twaina, Ronalda Reagana i još mnoge nepoznate. Prijevod Lare Hölbling Matković i Ivana Matkovića nadahnut je i osoban, a fotografiju na naslovnici potpisuje Marina Leskovar.
