Description
A weird, sardonic delight with the shape of an allegory and the heart of a joyful song. --Brenna Yovanoff, New York Times bestselling author of The Replacement
In this brilliantly written tragicomedy from acclaimed Morris finalist Len Vlahos comes a story about a girl whose dying father does the unthinkable--puts his life up for auction online.When fifteen-year-old Jackie discovers that her father has been diagnosed with a terminal brain tumor, her whole world starts to crumble. She can't imagine how she'll live without him. Then, in a desperate act to secure his family's future, Jackie's father does the unthinkable--he puts his life up for auction on eBay. Jackie can do nothing but watch and wait as an odd assortment of bidders, some with nefarious intentions, drive the price up higher. The fate of her entire family hangs in the balance. But no one can predict how the auction will finally end, or any of the very public fallout that ensues. Life as Jackie knows it is about to change forever . . . Surprising, original, political, and deeply affecting . . . It is one of those rare works of art that keeps you guessing up to the very last page. --Leila Sales, author of This Song Will Save Your Life It will tear you apart, and yet it's an absolute joy. --Adi Alsaid, author of Let's Get Lost and Never, Always, Sometimes
