Description:
A provocative and compelling YA about male friendship, loyalty and the search for heterosexual identity.

In this eloquent, poignant novel about male friendship and the search for heterosexual male identity, Sashi Kaufman explores how intense relationships anchor our view of ourselves in the world, and what happens when those relationships begin to unravel. Ben feels like a freak because he wears hearing aids. But being best friends with Tyler, the hottest guy in school, allows him to think of himself as normal--even though he knows he's just a little too dependent on Tyler. Then Tyler blows off Ben senior year and Ben doesn't know where he belongs or how to be fit in any more. Who is he without Tyler, and is Tyler really the"normal'' kid Ben thought he was anyway?
