YA
Translated by Tara Chace.
The fact that boy loves and loses girl is unsurprising in this tale of first romance; it's the storytelling voice that stands out. Prose poems trace Morris's relationships with Betty and with his family, including a father who has bipolar disorder. The short passages forego copious detail, distilling intimacy and adolescent strife to their most poignant moments.
