Krátky popis
Like many ambitious New York City teenagers, Craig Gilner sees
entry into Manhattan's Executive Pre-Professional High School as
the ticket to his future. Determined to succeed at life-which means
getting into the right high school to get into the right college to
get the right job-Craig studies night and day to ace the entrance
exam, and does. That's when things start to get crazy. At his new
school, Craig realizes that he isn't brilliant compared to the
other kids, he's just average, and maybe not even that. He soon
sees his once-perfect future crumbling away. The stress becomes
unbearable and Craig stops eating and sleeping-until, one night, he
nearly kills himself. Craig's suicidal episode gets him checked
into a mental hospital, where his new neighbors include a
transsexual sex addict, a girl who has scarred her own face with
scissors, and the self-elected President Armelio. There, isolated
from the crushing pressures of school and friends, Craig is finally
able to confront the sources of his anxiety. Ned Vizzini, who
himself spent time in a psychiatric hospital, has created a
remarkably moving tale about the sometimes unexpected road to
happiness. For a novel about depression, it's definitely a funny
story.
