About This Book
Pixie Anderson is nearly ready to graduate high school. With a mind for folly and his world in near disarray, he’s created John Stumpgrinder, a backwoods serial killer for a short story in his English class. Life imitates art, and art imitates life; together Pixie and John Stumpgrinder tear down all that stands in their way, until, in the end, what remains is the blasted landscape of a misspent youth.
With tomorrow upon him, the antihero, stunned and bewildered, rises again to an unsettled future, freeform and indestructible in the face of annihilation. He stands at last on the threshold of transcendence, alone with his ego, looking about for the first time and seeing with sudden clarity where his next step must be: forward, off the shrinking stage of all he once thought true.
Antihero is about what modern culture can do to kids.
