Jesse Andrews Libri

La vita di Greg cambia il giorno in cui la madre gli comunica che la sua compagna Rachel si è ammalata molto gravemente e che lui dovrebbe proprio starle vicino. Per Greg, il più imbranato nerd asociale della scuola, è un vero colpo. Il fortino di solitudine che si è costruito nel tempo comincia a traballare davanti ai suoi occhi. Non c'è niente da fare, se non sottoporsi al supplizio. Unica consolazione, la presenza di Earl, l'altro nerd della scuola. Insieme decidono di fare l'unica cosa di cui sono capaci. Un film per Rachel. Il film più brutto della Storia, probabilmente, ma con un'unica, devotissima fan.

A powerful and hilarious novel which is both a sheer pleasure to read and a scathing takedown of inequality in the modern world.

Do you have a favorite band? Okay. Good. Unfortunately, it also sucks. And Wes and Corey can tell you exactly how. There is nothing Wes and Corey can’t hate on. Even bands they love. In fact, they are incapable of loving anything without relentlessly figuring out ways to hate it, too. And so when they are sent to a place as soul-crushing as jazz camp—which is populated almost completely by competitive maniacs who are trying to seem chill by talking in Jazz Voice—Wes and Corey hate on it with extreme prejudice. Fortunately, so does a girl named Ash, who may even be a bigger and better hater than the two of them combined. When the three of them run away from camp, start their own band, and go on tour, it seems like a great idea. Except that they are faced with a basically unanswerable question: How can confirmed haters even try to make music that maybe doesn’t suck? The answer takes the form of a catastrophic, hilarious, romantically tangled road trip from Jesse Andrews, bestselling author of Me and Earl and the Dying Girl . You can feel free to hate on it. But you can also love it, too. Because maybe those are kind of the same thing.
