Descriere

Football is Willy Keeler's ticket out of West Texas, but only if he can keep his intellect, hormones, and adolescent rage from destroying his high school career. Reminiscent of such classic works as "The Last Picture Show" and "Catcher in the Rye, Whompyjawed" introduces a writer whose distinctive voice, knowing perspective, and off-beat sense of humor capture a time and place with striking originality.
