DescriptionBrent Runyon’s account of his attempted suicide has
garnered critical accolades for its glimpse into adolescent
depression and rare insight into the human condition.
Fearing expulsion and parental disapproval after lighting
a shirt on fire at his school, Brent goes home, soaks his
bathrobe with gasoline, steps into his shower, and strikes
a match. Suffering horrific burns, Brent faces a long,
painful recovery—both mentally and physically.
“Runyon has, perhaps, written the defining book of a new genre, one that
gazes ... unflinchingly at boys on the emotional edge.”—Booklist, starred review
