The body is a house of many windows. For Nick, this means showing himself to others and seeking attention from those around him. His father's expectations weigh heavily on his shoulders, but he struggles to make an impression. At Cambridge University, Nick faces new challenges as he navigates academic pressures and social expectations. When Nick joins the college rowing crew, his life becomes more complicated. As he coxes, he must balance his desire for attention with the demands of his coursework and relationships. This unexpected turn of events sets off a chain reaction that will change Nick's life forever. This novel explores themes of identity, family, and self-discovery, as Nick navigates the complexities of growing up and finding his place in the world.
