What is Micka about?

You Are Ten Years Old, And Living In A Chaotic, Fractured World Created By The Adults In Your Life. Micka Loves Drawing And Wants A Pup, But With Older Brothers Into Violence And Petty Crime, And A Mother Who Can't Read The Notes His Teacher Sends Home From School, Neither He Nor The Pup Stand Much Of A Chance. Then A New Boy Starts In Micka's Class. Laurie, Whose Crazy Mother And Emotionally Remote Father Have Just Split Up, Is A Year Older Than Micka, And Precociously Articulate. Both Boys Have Vivid Imaginations, But When They Meet, Their Imaginary Worlds Collide, With Disastrous Consequences: As Laurie's Fantasies Of Magic And Revenge Become More And More Unsettling, He Pulls Micka Into A Dangerous Game Where The Line Between Make-believe And Real Life - And, Ultimately, Death - Is Increasingly Blurred. Written In Direct, Uncompromising Yet Compassionate Prose, And With A Breathtaking Clarity Of Insight, Micka Is An Astonishingly Assured Debut - And An Unforgettable Story.--publisher's Description.
