Blowout

Blowout

by SusanVaught (Author)

Synopsis

Jersey Hatch is leaving the brain injury centre, it's just before his seventeenth birthday. He's not entirely sure what happened to him a little less than a year ago. Maybe he was in a terrible car accident, although people keep telling him he was shot in the head. In fact, that he shot himself in the head. 'Jersey Hatch, why would you do that to yourself?' He asks. He has no idea. Piece by piece, he finds out what really happened to him, all those months ago. Susan Vaught has written an amazingly powerful, immediate, and darkly funny novel about themes which are at the same time deeply personal, and universal.
