A funny and engaging novel about family, growing up, and change.
In 'Jack', AM Homes gives us a teenager who wants nothing more than to be normal, even if being normal means having divorced parents and a rather strange best friend. But when Jack's father takes him out in a rowboat on Lake Watchmayoyo and tells his son he's gay, nothing will ever be normal again.
Out of Jack's struggle to redefine what family means, AM Homes crafts a novel of enormous humour, charm, and resonance, the most convincing, funny, and insightful novel about adolescence since 'The Catcher In The Rye'.
