Description
A National Jewish Book Award finalist, this novel is a poignant coming-of-age story about a devout Jewish high school student navigating his place in the world. Ari Eden's life has been governed by strict rules, but when his family moves to Miami, he seizes an unexpected chance for reinvention. At his new school, Ari finds himself entangled with a group of peers who are magnetic and defiant, pushing moral boundaries and careening toward a perilous future. As they test their faith in unconventional ways, Ari must confront the conflicting forces that determine who we become: the allure of greatness, the doctrines we inherit, and our concealed desires. Mesmerizing and playful, heartrending and darkly romantic, this novel probes the complexities of identity, community, and tradition, revealing a mesmerizing exploration of youth, relationships, and the human condition.
