The boy on the bus : a novel de Deborah Schupack
Very bizarre story. Never did figure out what was really going on . . .
A well-written book with some nice, fancy words (reify, noctilucent come to mind), but I didn't get it. One of the reviews mentions a version with the author's comments at the end; I wish I could read them.
When Meg gets on the school bus for her son, Charlie, she realizes that the boy on the bus is not her son. Or is he? Everyone is always changing, aging, maturing, new cells are born and old ones die, mannerisms, behaviors evolve: At what point do changes become too drastic? Why does no one else say that they have noticed what Meg notices? Finally, what kind of person is the boy?… (mais)

The front side of the book jacket has a lenticular image of yellow and orange hearts surrounding the title on a bright pink background. As the angle of the book is tilted, the hearts get larger and smaller and almost seem to beat. This is a neat effect.
