Beschreibung

Meet Oliver Tate, 15. Convinced that his father is depressed ('Depression comes in bouts. Like boxing. Dad is in the blue corner') and his mother is having an affair with her capoeira teacher, 'a hippy-looking twonk', he embarks on a hilariously misguided campaign to bring the family back together. Meanwhile, he is also trying to lose his virginity - before he turns sixteeen - to his pyromaniac girlfriend Jordana. Will Oliver succeed in either aim? Submerge yourself in Submarine and find out ...

Let me begin by saying that I absolutely adore the film this book is based on. Someone once described it to me as "not a film, but a mood". The book sadly does not quite capture this mood in my opinion but that does not make it in any way a disappointing read. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and found it at times laugh out loud funny and absurd. I can't even really compare it to anything else. This book is very much it's own animal and I highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys being positively melancholic.
