OLDER FICTION
Morgenstern, Susie

Three Days Off

(2) YA Translated by Gill Rosner. William is a bored and apathetic French high-school student. When a frustrated teacher begs him to share his dreams, William blurts out that he'd really like to see her panties. During his resultant three-day suspension, he undergoes a gradual awakening. Funny and unponderous, the book is so brief and concentrated that it's more like a fable than a realistic novel.
