The Labyrinth of Teenage Existence
Miles "Pudge" Halter arrives at Culver Creek Preparatory School in Alabama with a strange obsession with famous last words and a yearning for what Francois Rabelais called "the Great Perhaps." His social life back in Florida was so barren that his going-away party consisted of exactly two people who spent most of the time ignoring him. At Culver Creek, he meets his roommate, the Colonel-a short, commanding figure with a photographic memory who immediately begins explaining the school's complex social hierarchy. But it's Alaska Young who truly captures Miles' attention. She bursts into his life like a hurricane, talking about boys who "honked" her breast over summer and proudly displaying her "Life's Library"-hundreds of books she's collecting to read before she dies. Beautiful, brilliant, unpredictable, and deeply troubled, Alaska becomes the center of Miles' universe almost instantly. Miles' initiation comes when he's duct-taped and thrown into a lake by the "Weekday Warriors"-wealthy students who go home on weekends while scholarship students like the Colonel stay behind. This incident cements his friendship with the Colonel, who declares Miles not just a roommate but a friend, promising revenge with surprising intensity. In this world of teenage alliances and rivalries, Miles finally finds the belonging he's been searching for.
