Short summary about this novel
Having sustained spinal cord and traumatic brain injuries after falling out of a helicopter during armed combat, a bedridden, attention deficit, punch-drunk, and always cynical "Lucky" drafts his unofficial memoir from a Marine Hospital in his now compromised cognitive state. The tale that follows is about a New Jersey orphanage in the late 80s, where the fantasy of being the next Oliver Twist or Orphan Annie yields to the harsher reality of deadbeat fathers, social alienation, and abuse. Twelve-year-old Lucky's only hope to win the respect of his peers is through competing in underground youth-run wrestling tournaments, and keeping his promise of obtaining a video game system for Christmas.
