Publisher Comments:

Strange tale of an 8 year-old boy who is placed in an institution for mentally retarded and generally disturbed children. This is the first UK edition which has been re-published in America and Europe, receiving wide acclaim in France the home of the author.

Synopsis:

Burton has the sort of perspective on life that is impossible for most adults to comprehend: the perspective of an eight-year-old boy. When Burt meets Jessica he finds solace from the problems of growing up but when he declares his love, he is placed in an institution for disturbed children.
