(3) YA Sixteen-year-old New Yorker and diarist Max delivers his pet cat's body to his aunt's Woodstock retreat. There Max meets Zini, an artist who inspires him. Hite's first-person narration is terse and pessimistic until book's end. The most poetic moments come in the final pages as Max waits for Zini and lets down his guard.
