The central character is a 13-year-old boy who is a genius so out of touch with reality that he has to have the letters “R” and “L” printed on his hands to distinguish them. The story covers his initiation into adulthood as he begins to rebel from the demands of his mother’s ambitions for him, developing a theory of a parallel world entered into by death.
