How All This Started

"Austin's often moving narration is earnest and rife with adolescent lust....The limited scope of Austin's vision can be trying--reading this novel is often like sitting in a hospital waiting room, hoping for any kind of information. Fromm...tries to compensate by providing a therapist who drearily explains things to Austin and the reader....But the complexity of living in the shadow of his sister's glamorously debilitating illness is clear."Fromm, Pete is the author of 'How All This Started' with ISBN 9780312276973 and ISBN 0312276974.
