Connell und Marianne wachsen in derselben Kleinstadt im Westen Irlands auf, aber das ist auch schon ihre einzige Gemeinsamkeit. Connell ist der Star im Footballteam, Marianne die komische Außenseiterin. Doch als die beiden zum ersten Mal miteinander reden, geschieht etwas mit ihnen, das ihr Leben verändert. Und auch später, an der Universität in Dublin, werden sie, obwohl sie versuchen, einander fern zu bleiben, immer wieder magnetisch, unwiderstehlich voneinander angezogen.

It takes us from that first conversation to the years beyond, in the company of two people who try to stay apart but find they can't.

As his family falls apart day by day, Robin finds himself pulling away from the unquestioned, unexamined life that has been carefully laid out for him. Small acts of rebellion lead to larger questions of what it means to stand on his own. Falling into a fevered triangle with two other outcasts, Todd Spicer and Scott Schatz, Robin embarks on an explosive odyssey of sexual self-discovery that will take him beyond the spring-green lawns of suburbia, beyond the fraying fabric barely holding together his quickly unraveling family, and into a complex future, beyond the world of normal boys.
