Fee is 12 when he joins the choir lead by Big Eric who soon starts sexually abusing him and other boys. The first half was beautiful. I loved the writing, the metaphors, depths&the way Chee handled the horror of sexual abuse. I also loved Korean folklore interspersed in the story because of Fee‘s heritage. I didn‘t care much for the college years. I thought they lacked the strength of the first half. Overall, a sad but beautiful book.
