About this listen

WINNER—NATIONAL BOOK AWARD FOR FICTION 2021

AN ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY 'MUST READ'

A TODAY SHOW BOOK CLUB PICK

* * * * *

Discover this astonishing work of fiction from award-winning, NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Jason Mott.

This is a true story.

An author goes on a book tour for his new bestseller which, as people keep telling him, is one hell of a book.

This is a coming-of-age story.

One morning, he meets The Kid: a young Black boy who looks just like the one he keeps seeing on the news. And The Kid wants him to tell his story.

This is a sad story.

It's the story of a boy who spent most of his life trying to hide. And it may not be that different from the story of our author.

This is a love story.

But to find out why, you'll have to listen to this for yourself.

Critic reviews

"An extraordinary emotional roller coaster of a read - I tore through this profoundly moving novel in a day but have been thinking about it ever since." (Abi Daré, author of The Girl with the Louding Voice)

"Playful, searching, raw and necessary, this writing, this voice, this novel twisted me up and turned me inside out, dazzled me, surprised me and moved me." (Charles Yu, author of Interior Chinatown)

"Hilarious and moving, thoughtful and madcap." (Jonathan Evison)

"How to possibly describe this novel without simply borrowing from its moniker? It is, after all, a hell of a book." (Entertainment Weekly)

"A beautiful and deeply moving book - I'd go so far as to say it's an important book and everyone should read it." (Imran Mahmood)
