About Fat Kid Rules the World:
His name is Troy, but to the world–and in his internal dialogues— he is the Fat Kid. Really Fat. Almost 300 pounds of sweating, unhappy insecurity. Then out of a moment of despair comes magic. As Troy considers whether to splatter himself on a subway track, Curt MacCrae, a charismatic punk rocker/homeless kid/dropout, comes along and stops him. For the price of a meal, Curt befriends Troy, and he sees something under all those layers: a potential musician, a friend, and someone with the ability to see through life’s bull.
In an outstanding, funny, edgy debut, K.L. Going presents two unlikely friends who ultimately save each other.
