A new edition of Michael L. Printz Award winner A.S. King's brilliant
and bizarre story of teenage trauma and standardized tests.
Four accomplished teenagers are on the verge of explosion. The
anxieties they face at every turn have nearly pushed them to the point
of surrender: senseless high-stakes testing, the lingering damage of
trauma, the buried grief and guilt of tragic loss. They are desperate
to cope—but no one is listening.
So they will lie. They will split in two. They will turn inside out.
They will build an invisible helicopter to fly themselves far away from
the pressure…but nothing releases the pressure. Because, as they
discover, the only way to truly escape their world is to fly right into
it.
A.S. King reaches new heights in this groundbreaking work of surrealist
fiction; it will mesmerize readers with its deeply affecting
exploration of how we crawl through traumatic experience—and find the
way out.
