Making Faces
by John Bullock Publisher: Ghost Road Press Publication Date: May 15, 2008 |
Description
Like many adolescents, fourteen-year-old Matt Bowen has no idea who he is. Anxious for connection and friendship, he embarks on a series of illegal break-ins, searching for acceptance in a world Matt says he never asked to be a part of. This offbeat debut novel, set in an English seaside bed and breakfast, is a poignant and funny coming-of-age story about identity—in all its guises—which charts Matt Bowen’s adventures as he learns hard truths about family and forgiveness.
