Showing results for "Normal!" in Historical Fiction

As his family falls apart day by day, Robin finds himself pulling away from the unquestioned, unexamined life that has been carefully laid out for him. Small acts of rebellion lead to larger questions of what it means to stand on his own. Falling into a fevered triangle with two other outcasts, Todd Spicer and Scott Schatz, Robin embarks on an explosive odyssey of sexual self-discovery that will take him beyond the spring-green lawns of suburbia, beyond the fraying fabric barely holding together his quickly unraveling family, and into a complex future, beyond the world of normal boys.

Woody Brown schrieb Geschichte als erster nicht-sprechender autistischer Absolvent der University of California. Sein Roman ist ein literarisches Ereignis. In einer Tagesstätte für Menschen mit Behinderung begegnen sich Schicksale, die unterschiedlicher nicht sein könnten. In der flirrendes Hitze Kaliforniens entfaltet sich eine Geschichte über die unsichtbaren Bande zwischen uns.
