New York, the turn of the 1960-1970s. The boy is subjected to a humiliating attack by the teacher. Mr. Maceinery is not satisfied that Jonathan is thirteen, and he weighs thirty kilograms of force. The child for the first time is forced to doubt his right to occupy a place in the world, in the right to his own body. Jonathan’s father, concerned about the deficiency of the masculinity of his son, develops a training regime and enhanced nutrition.
Not wanting it, the boy plays a dividing role in the marriage of parents. As a result, Jonathan is sent to a Swiss boarding school, where he manages to find himself among execonal students and outcasts. The father does not miss the chance to come to Europe and impose strange views on the image of a real man, threatening to destroy the space that Jonathan Wells won with such difficulty for himself.
The American poet Jonathan Wells recognized by critics presented sincere and strong memoirs about adolescence and the image of himself, the fragility of masculinity and the eternal search for comfort in the world.
This chronicle of adulthood is written magnificently and touching, intimate, criticism of the simultaneous and merciless one at the same time.
