"Nicky a sept ans. Ses parents sont plus âgés et plus méchants."
"A Place Called Lovely" expose plusieurs genres de violence que les individus rencontrent dans la vie, rossée explicite, accidents et meurtres, jusqu'à la violence plus insidieuse des mensonges, des conventions sociales, et de la confiance trahie. Benning a rassemblé des illustrations de cette violence insidieuse de plusieurs sources, en retraçant des évènements de jeunesse.
