Meer over het boek

Jake, a volunteer at a nursing home, enjoys activities like skating, singing, and reading aloud, but struggles with his self-image and social interactions. He feels like an outsider, often wishing to be invisible to escape the pain of being different. As he grapples with his relationship with food and his body, Jake's internal conflict intensifies, leading him to question how long he can endure this self-imposed punishment before he vanishes completely. The story explores themes of identity, acceptance, and the impact of societal pressures on self-worth.
