“Perceptive, wise, and downright hilarious, Peter Cameron’s latest YA novel chronicles the life of a misanthropic and misunderstood teenager growing up in a world he surely doesn’t understand. As Lorrie Moore eloquently wrote for the New York Review of Books review, “Someday This Pain Will Be Useful to You is most surprisingly of all the subtlest September 11 novel yet written.” Need I say more?”
