When CB's dog dies from rabies, CB begins to question the existence of an afterlife

His best friend is too burnt out to provide any coherent speculation; his sister has gone goth; his ex-girlfriend has recently been institutionalized; and his other friends are too inebriated to give him any sort of solace

But a chance meeting with an artistic kid, the target of this group's bullying, offers CB a peace of mind and sets in motion a friendship that will push teen angst to the very limits

Drug use, suicide, eating disorders, teen violence, rebellion and sexual identity collide and career toward an ending that's both haunting and hopeful

"Good grief! The Peanuts kids have finally come out of their shells" ~ Time Out

"A welcome antidote to the notion that the Peanuts gang provides merely a slice of American cuteness" ~ NY Times

. " ... doesn't feel like the same old high-school-warfare schlock. The characters - teenage and reckless - are both genuinely sympathetic and unquestionably cruel. Growing more hysterical and more harrowing as it flows to an inevitable, uncomfortable end, this taut comedy manages to make tired clichés about stoners and popular homecoming airheads funny and endearing" ~ NY Magazine
