- Teenage boys, Death, Mental Depression, Fathers
"The geography of Adam Westman's life changes dramatically in the two weeks before his high school graduation. True, many of the familiar landmarks are still there when he looks for them; his best friend Dart riding shotgun; the suburban house where he lives with his melancholy dad and younger sister, Sandra; the on-ramps and off-ramps that connect his hometown of Angelito to Los Angeles's endless maze of freeways.
