The short story that I read about the twisted life of Angus Bethune, is interesting to say the least. Angus' parents are divorced and remarried as same sex couples. In addition he is uh, large, to say it politely. It's not all bad though. He's a world class football player and quote "incredibly quick for a fat kid." He also has an IQ safely in the three digits. So even though he's talented he's not exactly good looking and he is over weight so he gets picked on a lot. Well this isn't a problem until he gets elected Winter Ball king.
The story is about how he deals with this problem for some one as socially awkward as himself being thrust into the public spot light.
While it's not a story I would pick up on my own if your bored and have a few minutes of free time it's an entertaining read.

Did you mean to say "twisted life"? Or was that a funny mistake?
ReplyDeleteI'd love to hear you go beyond summary here--what did you find entertaining? WHy wouldn't you pick it up on your own?
