When his grandmother dies, 15-year-old JP's family is set adrift. His mother starts acting like a teenager, leaving JP to care for his mentally challenged father. Then she wins an old farmhouse in an essay contest, insists that the three of them move there-and, because she wants to "share her luck", invites some of the neighborhood outcasts to live there, too. There's Larry, whose parents discount his art; Bobbi, abused by her father; and the various poets, painters, and artists who are drawn to JP's mother and her vision. It's a vision JP doesn't see nor share-and, lost in the chaos of his new household, he doesn't know who he is anymore, or if he matters to either of his parents. This eagerly awaited novel by the author of the National Book Award winner Dancing on the Edge will capture readers-and show them a new way to look at family. Media >, [PU: Penguin Books]<
