Résumé :
In September 1973, as the school year begins in his depressed Ohio town, high-school senior Kurt Shoemaker determines to be "normal," despite his chaotic home life with his volatile, alcoholic mother and the deep loyalty and affection he has for his friends in the therapy group dubbed the Madman Underground.

Good addition to my library
Centered around eight students who are sent to a therapy session on a daily basis at school and who create their own group. A story of friendship and a search for what makes one "normal". Language is an issue.
