The whole perspective is given meaning at the end within last 40 pages to say for the least , but the whole scrutiny of the confused boy and tired of his surrounding is worth preparing the whole structure … a must read for all

Extremely powerful narration of an adolescent boy’s mind. This was one of my early reads when i started reading, many years back. I guess, it is because of this book i got my interest in reading heightened to another level. Highly recommended!
