Description
The White Boy Shuffle is a powerful and humorous novel about transformation and identity. When Gunnar Kaufman's mother moves from suburban Santa Monica to urban West Los Angeles, he is forced to navigate a new world and discover his own strengths.
This electrifying debut explores the complexities of contemporary America through Gunnar's journey from outcast to basketball superstar, and eventually, to a reluctant leader. Beatty's unique blend of satire and heart creates a reading experience that is both laugh-out-loud funny and poignant.
