It's cheaply erotic, smacking of an easy double entendre and refer tos none of the poetically weak and startlingly original story that chases The novel is about heedful and small-boned Nathan, who has just mov into a farmhouse in the ancient Kennicutt Woods with his parents. Across a small field live their landlords, whose son Roy has a bedroom window that faces Nathan's. After a not many weeks, Nathan develops a crush forward Roy, and who can blame him?
