Mit packendem Witz und treffender Ironie erzählt der sechzehnjährige Adam Petrazelli seine tragische, aber nie hoffnungslose Geschichte über das Anderssein in unserer heutigen Welt. Eigentlich sollte es einfach sein, Einbildung und Wirklichkeit zu trennen. Doch für Adam, der auf eine Highschool in den USA geht, ist dies eine schier unlösbare Aufgabe, denn er leidet unter Schizophrenie. Er sieht Menschen, die nicht existieren - zum Beispiel Rebecca, eine schöne junge Frau, die ihn wie eine Schwester versteht, oder einen tyrannischen Mafiaboss mit Maschinengewehr.

Adam is a pretty regular teen, except he's navigating high school life while living with paranoid schizophrenia. His hallucinations include a cast of characters that range from the good (beautiful Rebecca) to the bad (angry Mob Boss) to the just plain weird (polite naked guy). An experimental drug promises to help him hide his illness from the world. When Adam meets Maya, a fiercely intelligent girl, he desperately wants to be the normal, great guy that she thinks he is. But as the miracle drug begins to fail, how long can he keep this secret from the girl of his dreams?
