High school senior Miles Parker is an aspiring vegan with a bit of
a violent streak. Miles also has a major-league arm, but walked
away from sports when his dad abandoned him. Living alone, Miles
searches for a new identity through the rangefinder of his vintage
Zorki camera. War rages overseas and threatens to break out closer
to home. Inspired by two free-thinking teachers and a reclusive
artist, Miles and his brainy sidekick Bird handle the return of the
draft, complex relationships, and hometown haters with creativity
and humor. The Zorki Chronicles is a coming-of-age novel whose
quirky characters make a stand for the new counterculture.
