About this item
A New York Times Bestseller "Bono met his wife in high school," Park says. "So did Jerry Lee Lewis," Eleanor answers. "I'm not kidding," he says. "You should be," she says, "we're 16." "What about Romeo and Juliet?" "Shallow, confused, then dead." Set over the course of one school year in 1986, this is the story of two star-crossed misfits ? smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try.
