Product Description
A beautifully written, uncompromising yet poignant account of the relationship between a boy with cerebral palsy and a girl with a drug habit. Ben Bancroft is the invisible man. Nicknamed "Spaz" because of the cerebral palsy that has disabled him since birth, he's a real loner: no parents, no siblings, no friends, just a wealthy, straight-laced grandmother, who looks after him as if he were still a small child. His only escape is the decrepit Rialto Theatre where, on Friday nights, he watches old movies with the other loners. The last person he expects - or wants - to meet there is Colleen Minou. Drugged out, covered in tattoos, clad in ripped tights and a neon mini skirt, she's the kind of trouble Ben's spent his life avoiding. But when Colleen climbs into the seat beside him and rests a woozy head on his shoulder, it's the start of a relationship that will alter Ben's life...for ever. With forthright humour and explicit dialogue, Stoner and Spaz tells an engaging story of the coming together of two teenagers from very different worlds, each with a demon to face...
