- Summary
- Rick Lahrem is a high school sophomore in a Chicago suburb in 1976. His mother's second husband is a licensed psychologist who eats like an ape, his stepsister is a stoner slut, and his father is engaged to a Southern belle. After he brings two girls in speech class to tears by reading a story aloud, Rick is coaxed onto the interscholastic team to perform an eight-minute dramatic interpretation of The Boys in the Band, the controversial sixties play about homosexuality. Unexpectedly successful at this oddball event, Rick begins winning tournaments and making friends with his teammates. Rick also discovers the joys of sex (with a speech coach from a rival school) just as his mother makes an unnerving commitment to Christ. The newly confident Rick assumes this too shall pass until the combined forces of family, sex, and faith threaten to undo him at the state meet in Peoria.--B.I.P
