Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Thirteen year old Max Kane has a major problem with self-esteem. But who wouldn't, given what he's been through?
His mother is dead, murdered years before by his father, who is now serving time in prison. Max lives with his grandparents in a basement room, rarely emerging from his "down under" world because he thinks he's too huge and too stupid to function.
