How Much Is This Face Worth?

About the Autobiography
A politically charged autobiography, "How Much is This Face Worth?" tells the true story of Joyce 901, who went from 150,000 points to 302 points in one childhood and then spent 2 years living on the streets. It explores concepts such as childhood fame, equality, and the point system used for children, and argues an Equalist stance on Children's Homes. Joyce posits that her worth as a human didn't change throughout the years, but that she was continually devalued based on a corrupt system, and her ultimate homelessness was a failure on the part of the System to prepare her for life after the Home.
