Overview

A coming-of-age story that is at turns humorous and deeply serious. It is character-driven literary fiction with emotional complexity, but often hilarious. The Billy Chronicles follows 17-year-old Billy Harrington--smart, athletic, and likable--whose life is upended when his girlfriend tells him she's pregnant. The novel alternates between two narrative threads: one follows Billy and his girlfriend as they grapple with the pregnancy and the life-altering decisions it demands; the other humorously recounts key events from Billy's life, one for each year from age two through sixteen, offering vivid glimpses into the experiences that shaped him. Each of these formative episodes is written with the perspective and voice appropriate to Billy's age at the time, giving the novel a witty, layered, evolving point of view.
