Requirements: MOBI / ePUB reader, 564, 435 kb
Overview: Stephen Dueweke was born in 1958 in Detroit, and has lived his whole life on the fringes of that city.
28-year-old physics teacher Shannon O’Donnelly falls in love with 14-year-old freshman Jim Brandekker and his love is returned. O’Donnelly is arrested after sexually assaulting another boy.
Who made Shannon O‘Donnelly land in jail? His attorney John Waldmann conjectures: Mad O’Donnelly is protecting one of his students. The defense calls 14-year-old St. Agnes freshman Jim Brandekker, next in line of Stickford’s whitest family. And that’s where the controversy begins.
"Nutty as a fruitcake, aflame with sex, but literary withal, this boyish novel must be read to be believed." – James Merrill
"With a narrative voice that is consistently fresh, bravely honest, and daringly inventive, Stephen Dueweke gives us a complexly poetic understanding of adolescent sexuality in all its confusion of emergence." — Guy Davenport
Genre: Romance, MM, coming-of-age
